Hey folks!

I read a review about PowerDesk Pro 5.0 PC Magazine and most of the
other major magazines say that this is Windows Explore on Speed, Crack,
and Glue all together.

They can't seem to say enough about how good this program is.

Well, I went out and purchased it and I'm stupefied.

It took the program over five minutes to delete ten files. When I tried
to delete 100 files it never did finish. After along time I just decided
to use the Task manger and terminate it.

It is the slowest most unstable program I have ever seen that is so
highly rated. Has anyone else here ever used it?

Then I downloaded a trial version of Total Commandeer 6.01

It is not rated hardly at all. However I was able to rename over a
thousand files in about two minutes without a hitch. It deletes files
instantly. Starts and stops flawlessly. It has never hung up on me.
I love this program. Has anyone else used it? What do you think of it?

I downloaded Directory Opus 6.2 a few minutes ago. it costs $60.00 to
purchase. I'm going to test it and see how it works. Is anyone familiar
with it?

Are there any others besides those three that are worth using? I manage
thousands of JPG's so I need a file manager like Total Commandeer that
can manipulate them very quickly.

TIA

Will

Try Turbo Navigator

I use that on my win98 machine...it works well and the price is right!

I also go a utility for long file name support
and use winfile...although I doubt too many folks like it...I find it handy

I also have to say your not going to go wrong with 2X Explorer. A must
have on any PC I use.

PowerDesk is indeed a very good program. Works great on my systems. But I like

I've tried them all and imho Directory Opus is the best, although it
is a bit expensive. However it's currently on sale for about $35 so
maybe now is the time to get it

If you want a simple free one to try, I rocommend turbo navigator. You
should be able to find it by typing it into google. However, Dir Opus is
the king of file management. I remember using it back in the Amiga
days...what great days...

You could try mine (it is just a hobby/resume, but I get many emails saying
it is the best)

I am updating it soon to add user requested features so if you want me to
add something to it email me.

It certainly has the most interesting use of apostrophes that I've
seen in a file manager
