Well we can quote reviewers all day, your latest post says "Xplorer² however is still a better choice for average users who will be overwhelmed by XYPlorer's power."
I think it's possible to have a lot of power at the same time as simplicity and ease-of-use, and XYplorer is pretty good at that.

test everything. hold on to the good.
My initial attraction to XYplorer was its apparent ease of use. Then I kept peeling back layer after layer of power features and was surprised at how clever they were implemented in XYplorer's user interface. Whether you're a newbie or a power user, I think anyone could benefit from having XYplorer on their desktop.Chris Wood wrote:...it's possible to have a lot of power at the same time as simplicity and ease-of-use, and XYplorer is pretty good at that.

I think part of the reason why XY works better than many other products is due to the feedback given here in the forums, and an author who, in almost all cases, pays attention to that feedback!
It's seems kinda like a group project at times with us users pointing the cook at the best ingredients to make the dish with.
But...we are also blessed with a developer who really knows his stuff!!

Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!

Well said, JC. One of the first things I told Don as feedback for purchase was the quality of this forum, of which you're a big part of that. Thanks! Zen, by the way, is a perfect description of XYplorer. And below is how I picture Don 22 hours a day:j_c_hallgren wrote:I think part of the reason why XY works better than many other products is due to the feedback given here in the forums, and an author who, in almost all cases, pays attention to that feedback!

The Zen of File Management also makes a good description for a XYplorer blogroll link.

Yep, Zen Ridling, your vision is shockingly sharp! It's just that I'm not sitting but floating about 10 inch levitated over the ground.zridling wrote:Zen, by the way, is a perfect description of XYplorer. And below is how I picture Don 22 hours a day:
