Making a Better File Manager
24 February 2006 in Code-ing | Comments enabled
The Windows Explorer (aka. File Explorer) is completely useless at times. Especially when opening a folder with special characters (but not forbidden such) my Windows Explorer has been crashing and DEP:ing around way, way too much. So much, I had to open the command prompt to edit all the files name to something short that shouldn’t crash the Exploder. 
Now I’ve been designing the GUI for my own file manager, which is still without a name. It will be a better, maybe faster file manager than Explorer currently is and support some features that I’ve been missing for years. As a hint, I can say that the GUI will be nothing like File Commander, nor Windows Explorer like. I won’t call it revolutionalizing, since it will be using the best features from other programs and operating system. I won’t even set a date to when it will be released, since I don’t have time to meet deadlines. But, I’m looking at making it operating system independent using C# (of course).
Time will tell how things will look for this app…
