Just evaluating Total Commander as a Windows Explorer replacement would not be fair.

If you have previously (in the old DOS days) used Norton Commander, using Total Commander will come naturally, as many of the keyboard shortcuts are the same. Total Commander also gives you a lot of the file info that in Windows Explorer requires you to right click on a file and select properties.Īnother important difference between Total Commander and Windows Explorer is that Total Commander also is designed to be used using only the keyboard, where Windows Explorer in general is hard to use without a mouse.

Basically Total Commander (formerly known as Windows Commander) is a file manager with two separate windows with a lot of extra features.
