Selecting the check boxes in the file window lags. A "back", "forward", and "up 1 level" button among others are very important even without an address bar.Ĥ. However, when you pin it to the Task Bar, it starts in a tiny miniature window, not saving the window position and size settings.ģ.When you choose to not show the address bar, the tool bar icons also disappear.

You can click the icon on the desktop and it works fine. The "Save Current State at Desktop" is wonderful, but has a Win 7 quirk. Come on man, make the icons 4x bigger, or at least an option for large icons.Ģ. I think Nenad has exceptional vision, and believes everyone else does. I'm not kidding you, those icons are only about 2mm on some displays. The tool bar icons are ridiculously small. 6 annoying problems I can think of right now.ġ. With tiny size, light resource footprint and native portable option it is also good to carry on flash drive or quickly fetch from Internet.Great program. Q-Dir is freeware that is probably best fit for users that find Explorer no longer sufficient but have no background, resolve or need to move into realm of more powerful solutions. On other hand it is extremely mouse-driven (as is Explorer) and oblivious to polished and efficient hotkeys of dual-pane file managers. This makes it very fast, responsive and zeroes learning curve.

Q-Dir goes further by incorporating Explorer windows in its interface. There are numerous apps that try to improve Explorer via toolbars and other interface extensions.

For all interface decisions, standard experience and many years of development it is still unfitting for anything but basic tasks. I always have mixed feelings about Explorer – Windows native file manager.
