CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This slimmed-down file manager trumps Windows Explorer on many counts, but it may have too much flexibility for some users.
Xplorer2 Lite's interface is easily adapted to your preferences. Toolbars and information windows can be moved on a whim. You can browse two or more folders in one window, using program tabs and different panes. What's more, you can customize search windows and save the settings for later use. Visual filters improve crowded directory readability. You can easily rename multiple files at once, split or merge files, synchronize folders, and shred data to prevent recovery. However, we are disappointed that the Check Duplicates and Compare Subfolders functions are disabled.
An enhanced DOS command line allows you to create scripts to process file batches, a nice touch for more advanced users. The online help is detailed, tool tips are mini manuals, and the Tip of the Day feature gives even more helpful information. All in all, this program makes the learning curve gentle. Almost everyone will find this file manager a great improvement over their current tool. Xplorer2 Lite will even make novices feel like power users.

Version: Xplorer2 lite 1.4.0.1 lite
Pros: I'm still playing with this, but so far, I'm loving it. Xplorer2 lite shows you everything you ever wanted to know about the files, drivers and programs on your pc. This is a GREAT file manager, even for novices. Try it, it's free! I recommend Xplorer2 lite and give it 5 big stars and two thumbs up!

Version: Xplorer2 lite 1.4.0.1 lite
Pros: It's got all the features you wish I.E. had. The lite version is free.
Cons: Really no cons so far. The only thing I see missing so far, is that I wish you could have a toolbar that just showed your bookmarks, so you could just click on the toolbar to go to the bookmark, instead of having to go to the bookmark menu.

Version: Xplorer2 lite 1.4.0.1 lite
"Functionally kicks Explorer's hiney."
Pros: The Commander-esque interface allows for fast and efficient file location and transfer. Great for backing up directories. Shortcuts and bookmarks allow for a whole slew of other wonderful functions. Also great for small monitors where screen real estate is a hot commodity. A must-have for any power-user. Certainly the best free file manager out there.
Cons: Only allows dual-pane with tree view, but as more than two could be very confusing, this is understandible. Might have a steep learning curve for those who rarely try something different.
