    Any good file explorer alternative?


    File explorer is not only inferior to Mac Finder but it's inferior to Linux file explorers(Nautilus, Nemo, Dolphin) too. Any good alternative to try which makes me not frustrated? Thanks in advance!

    File Explorer alternative

    Anyone have a good suggestion for an alternative file explorer other than what is given on Microsoft?

    Everytime I open it, it is like this one time in bootcamp. Our Drill Instructors did not think we were going fast enough to get our footlockers squared away, closed, and locked. So they had 72 men dump the contents o0f their footlockler out and pushed everything
    into the moiddle. We had to kick the contents, mix 'em all up and give us about ten seconds to get everything back in our footlockers, closed, and locked. We never got it done in time so we had to dump ourcontents into the middle of the squadbay and mix everything
    up again. About the fifth time this happened, it dawned on me what our problem was. We were worried about getting our stuff back and wasted a lot of time sorting through everything to find our own stuff. So I started telling everyone just grab a bunch of stuff
    and we will sort it out later.

    This is what File Explorer is to me. When youn go on there, you will find all kinds of folders with the same name, everything opened up, and basically you are playing hide and seek trying to find what you need. For all the stuff Microsoft thinks it is great
    about with Windows 10, they are not. If you need something to waste your time, Windows 10 is just for you. If you hate organizing your files and foldiers-Windows 10 is for you.

    Anyone have suggestions to an alternative of Windows 10 File explorer?

    Thanks
