| [POLL] File Managers-2008 Member Choice Windows 3.1 File Manager-circa 1991 |
What software do you use for file management? A file manager is a graphical interface used to copy, move, delete, or create files and folders without typing arcane text
commands into a black screen. Some will include more complex features like ftp, telnet, directory size, etc. Do you use more than one program depending on the task?
Please comment on your vote.

I usually let Windows do the tasks... but if I get a problem file/folder, I use FreeCommander. -- Think outside the Fox... Opera | |

Thanks for the poll, tahoejeff ! Good job.
In Windows I much prefer ExplorerXP - that's saved me a LOT of time doing bulk editing. In Linux I use whatever comes with the distro, most often Konqueror or Nautilus.

| I've always used Windows Explorer, but with Vista's version of Explorer being more diabolical (things just seem to be buried deeper in it), would a third-party file manager be a better choice? -- Life is simply one damned thing after another. | |

| The Finder
A couple days ago it would have definitely been Windows Explorer. Now, my favorite choice is the Finder, which was massively improved in its latest revision (and boy, did it need it!).
Followed by: 2nd - Windows Explorer 3rd - Nautilus (Ubuntu 7.10) -- Ron Paul 2008!
