"XYplorer" WITH A LAUNCHBAR!

I am currently using another file manager/explorer. I am debating over yours or the one I have. I can not seem to do some of the basic things I need to do. I have looked at the help files.
I need to have a launch bar. This I use when I need to go to different folders. Like I have all my temp, history folders here. After I am finished on the web I go there and an systematically able to go to each one and clean out/delete all the garbage.
Also I, on the other file manager, I call up dual window panes for the tree directory. I then can move files from a plugged in usb, hd or another folder on my hdrive.
Thanks JC

If you need a place to store locations (to go to), applications (to start or open files with), and much more ; you might wanna have a look at
the Catalog !

Hi and a belated welcome to the XY forums!
Regarding dual panes: It's been the subject of many discussions here (some quite heated/hostile) but if you want to see the current thread, look at this thread "
Dual Pane Proposal" so DP is not out of the question at some future point.
BTW, it might get a tiny bit confusing with a signature of "JC" as that's sometimes how I'm referred to here...plus a signature isn't really needed anyway here, so possibly consider that option.
