Searching for a file explorer that fits in between.
I searched extensively and couldn't locate a free File Explorer alternative between the outdated Windows File Explorer and the more sophisticated Double Commander file manager.
I've invested a lot of time trying to find the right keystroke or mouse action to create a new folder in Double Commander.
I still rely on it 99% of the time, but only use a tiny fraction of its capabilities. The rest feels unnecessary and disrupts my workflow.
Perhaps in the future I'll need a better feature, but currently it hinders rather than helps.
My main goal is to rename files, copy them, or delete them—features that are essential for a file manager.
The current version makes these tasks cumbersome and less intuitive.
I'm wondering if anyone knows a free, open-source File Explorer replacement that maintains the core functionality without complicating things.
Menus, menus.
It also supports left click->new->folder, just like Windows does.
Navigating to configuration->options->keys->hotkeys provides a list of all commands you can execute with a key or key combination.
it might simply be referred to as a directory, as the term "folder" is an older classification for a directory.
