ExplorerXP is a very fast, small, compact and innovative file manager for Windows. Unlike the regular Windows Explorer, it displays the total size of each folder and allows you to browse multiple folders from a tabbed interface. It also includes an option to split and merge files, and to select or delete files based on wildcards.

- Sorting files by date has the arrow point in the wrong direction in v1.06. - Fixed

I guess development on this program is dead! May it "Rest in Peace". No updates since 2005 LoL

I was hoping to use this program so I could browse under different (administrative) credentials in a domain, as explorer can't be. And while it works well for that this software is quite slow, freezing often. Lacks drag and drop compatibility with explorer, and is extremly inconvienient with network locations (no tree view, no share listings from servers, etc). I give it a 2 since its good for winPE and works with RunAs. If anyone knows any similar programs which are better please post!

Edit (24.1.08): I am now using it with no problems in Vista Home Premium.
It does what it says on the box and it has some features I find very useful, mainly the tabs, grouping and the detailed file lengths. Okay, it's not an all singing, all dancing utiulity; basically, it's just a useful program compensating for Microsofts inadeqaucies by doing somethings XP should do but doesn't.
I hope it gets developed further.

Oh, I get it, Blaxima, I'm "confused". Hah! Good one. Unfortunately, it's the other way around. You see, I meant that ExplorerXP doesn't support full drag-and-drop, including with the RIGHT mouse button. ExplorerXP didn't support it then, and it doesn't now. (BTW, did you know the mouse had another button?)
Now, before someone else thinks they're making a point, when they're actually sadly mistaken, I do realize that a normal left button drag-and-drop moves, while holding the Ctrl key while doing the same performs a copy. But it's still not the same as full drag-and-drop support, which allows the use of drag-and-drop handler shell extensions.
Does that help get it through your head?
