Explorer Commander is a two or four panel file manager software. It enables a fundamental part of Windows operating systems, namely File Explorer to work similarly as a professional file manager program while retaining the advantages of File Explorer.
An advantage of Microsoft File Explorer is that it is a fundamental part of Windows, so it provides efficient access to the file system and the components of installed programs that are integrated into the system. Its main disadvantage is that it doesn’t support multi-panel mode. As a workaround, you can open multiple File Explorer windows, but this method is also clumsy.
Explorer Commander offers a multi-panel expansion for Windows Explorer. The application was created using the original explorer.exe process. This process performs various tasks, e.g. Windows shell, File Explorer, etc. These tasks might as well be performed by individual processes. They were probably incorporated into a single combined process due to compatibility reasons.
