Using XYplorer for about a year made me kinda addicted to it. It's fast, small on resources, has good and handful interface, build-in wast scripting abilities and many thing "you may have dreamed for". For me, personally, XYplorer is almost best for 3 reasons(almost- because it's developing daily so it can become even beter):
1- it's a great replacement for default Win Explorer-shell 'cause it rather resembles it still having a bunch of features to impress;
2- from the moment you install it you have some familiar and "used to" feeling - that's because XYplorer is treated just like an internet browser = middle click to open new tab, same to close existing, double-click on empty space to go up in catalog-tree(i just admire this feature!) and many other "browser-like" cool stuff;
3- in search of good file manager i tried almost all of them or at least every i could find = all this Directory opus, Speed Commander, X2plorer etc. = and imo the only file-manager XYplorer may "bow to" is Total Commander - not because XY is worser, but because only TC stands at similar level = TC is for pro-users with keyboard-only-style(and don't say you use TC with mouse- that's shameful!), and XY is for anyone and especially for "mouse-serfers"(i hope you understand what i mean).
So, all in all XYplorer is a "all you can find in any other file manager" and "many things you can find only here". It's not about "buy it - you must have it" = it's about " try it - you may like it" :)
P.S. All following is not part of my review but my personal opinion: read few reviews below and got a feeling of a capricious child who found a pen spot on a blank paper and keeps to annoyingly/blindly scream that paper is bad.
