Just trying this new alternative to windows explorer.

I always seem to have multiple windows explorers open and I came accross explorerxp and the thing has tabs

more info:

Easy access to My Computer, Recycle Bin , My Documents & Desktop

Drag & Drop with Explorer, the tab bar and special folders on the main toolbar.

Multy rename tool - allows to rename multiple files in one step.

Displays folder size information and the real size of compressed files & folders.

Merge / Split Tools.

Advanced copy/move.

Unicode support.

USB devices support.

Clean - recursively removes files that match given list of extentions or wildcards.

I've just started using it and I like it!

Tabbed windows explorers

also, if you close the program it remembers where you were when you open it.

Does this mess with WIndows at all? I mean is it going to smear poop all over my hard disk?

it does not replace the windows explorer file. it is an independant program.

Running like a champ here.

no spyware from what i can see.

it evens creates a shortcut to where i always started the old windows explorer from.

right click the start button lol

I really like the groups function. I created one with my most used documents in it. That keeps me from having to wade through the tree to find the folder I need.
