| Guest | Explorer Replacement? Can someone recommend an Explorer type program that will display EVERYTHING on the drive in normal mode, regardless of whether MS thinks I should see it or not? Their attempts to protect me from myself are really infuriating at times. Thanx: Buddha |

| Guest | Re: Explorer Replacement? Yes, It is called Windows Explorer and the best thing is you already own it., Here is how, In any open Explorer Window Click Organize then select Folder and search options. Click on the view tab and click on the show hidden files and folders option under the Hidden files and Folders section also uncheck the Hide extensions for known filetypes and uncheck Hide protected operating system files. But of course now beware that when you show the protected operating system files you could delete them and cause problems so, just don't delete them of course. ![]() -- James M Driscoll Jr MCTS (Vista) Spaceman "Buddha" <TEPonta@xxxxxx> wrote in message news B01A4EF-5349-4C11-9306-B059AC68CF89@xxxxxx

| Guest | Re: Explorer Replacement? Thanx for the reply. Only one problem; I don't have a Hidden Files and Folders section, nor an item to show hidden files and folders. Everything else, I've already done. Buddha "Spaceman" <spaceman@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:eSr2f5Q$IHA.4380@xxxxxx

Hey, I've been using Total Commander from before the days it was called Windows Commander. It's really good for doing particular things, and I have made custom button for visual ROBOCOPY and XXCOPY operations. It works very well. Never heard of Total Commander Ultima Prime until just now. Looks interesting, but the screenshots show loads of extra button, which put me off a bit. I have already made custom buttons that I need. What do you find so good about this version, before I try it myself? ss. | ||||||||||||

It looks a bit of a do-all swiss-army knife thing, which does not interest me. What additions does it have to the core file manager? Can you install it without all the addon apps? ss. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Newbie Rep Power: 2 ![]() | Re: Explorer Replacement? Yeah the Ultima Prime version is a collection of TC plugins. If your not into the swiss army style you can go to the TC website and select only the plugins you want. Really Ultima Prime adds nothing but a collection of these plugins. JonDgls |
