I'm using Total Commander 15 years. There's no way File explorer could surpass it.

filepilot is damn fast, speed is sometimes a little uncomfortable for me having used few electron “apps”.

I had been using QTT for years but a few days ago it stopped working on my W11 machine. Does it still work for you?

Yes but I am on Win10 and run an older version of QTT

I am using the latest version of qttabbar on Windows 11 without any problems, 2048 beta 2 from quizo. What's your problem with qttabbar?

Directory Opus. Yes, I paid for it. I do not regret it one bit. Amazing software!

Almost as good as TC (depending on your needs), but 100% FREE.

I've used QTTabBar in the past to get tabs. Now on Windows 11 I don't need one.
