OneCommander: Windows File Explorer Alternative Focused on Customization

The Windows File Explorer is powerful. But it's not perfect. Whether it's always keeping those folders on top of your file listing, or it's the lack of features like the Mac's Quick Look, maybe you want a bit more from your File Management on Windows. That's where OneCommander comes in. Here's our overview of this fantastic alternative to File Explorer that shines with customization features, many of which are inspired by macOS.

Been using this exclusively for over a year now. Can't imagine not having it now. Such a powerful explorer. Saving tab sets for different work flows is a monumental time saver and eases the frustrations of using multiple folders at once. WELL worth the small fee for sure!

Played with this for 10 minutes and I am already sold.

I've looked for this solution for a long time. Thank you.

i have to check that out tomorrow.

windows file explorer is driving me nuts. i dont even have words for it. its almost as if microsoft actively tried to make the explorer as bad as possible. its confusing, it makes no sense, its unefficient, you have all of that duplicate nonsense all over the ui and...you know what annoys me the most? i am a windows user since windows 98, i SHOULD know windows by now. yet here i am and every time i need to do something in the explorer, i am like ''floating my mouse around trying to figure out where i had to click trying to find things'' it just makes no sense. urgh... i hate it.

How to display the property bar, which is the top row of the list, displaying file name, size, date, file type, etc. I can even customize the display of comments.

Great tutorial - 1Q: Why is there a NOT symbol in the Size column for some directories, and how to correct that?

[patricioeb]

Feels so cool, total control... I may only miss an FTP connection.

[HOAIAN]

How to use ftp client, I typing ftp:// and it show invalid.

[averagepainter]

One question. Can it handle file names greater than 260 characters?

[Ozone]

Can you batch edit file properties - like you could in Explorer before Microsoft decided it wasn't needed anymore?

[ronaldstarck]

good day
is there a function - synchronize folders?

[ysiadpir]

It is slick.. I like it better than FILES so far.

[LowKey_Loki]

Your video encouraged me to start using one command or more. I love it so far.
Thanks for the tips!

Do you think Peek from Microsoft PowerToys will work with One Commander?

[samdovels]

How can I change the preview/details pane to be at the bottom of the folder instead of the right side? That's the biggest issue for me with the regular Files explorer. They sadly changed it from Windows 7 for no reason.

[edng]

How do you show *all* EXIF data in the DETAILS PANE (yes, exif data is in the FOLDER PANE) ?

[nikolainedkov]

So by mistake I deleted the default folder with "recent" and i cant find out how to bring "recent" back can someone help?

[QuenchGames]

Thank God! Giving this a shot. I have always hated windows file explorer. I hope search is better on this one. If not... I am a developer, and I will begin my journey of creating my own file explorer....

[Definesleepalt]

thank you so much, have been looking for a new file explorer for a long time.... windows 10 UI is just so bad this is like a breath of fresh air, i teared up a bit at the fact that i don't have to use file explorer anymore
