    Win10 File Explorer replacement


    Although due to some properties use this program, I want to ask tips on how fully replace it.
    Total Commander file manager is OK, but for example, working with the home network is is unsatisfactory and complex. Needs a plugin for this(?). Or at least I can't operate me. Does anyone know something about some "combination" of those progs?
    Thank you in advance for tips
    Peter

    File Explorer > Open With replacement?

    It seems like the simple "open with" dialog has gotten worse with every version of Windows since they invented it. I avoided Win8/8.1, but cannot avoid Win10... and this is a feature that I use regularly, and absolutely hate what MS has done with it in Win10.

    I've already checked out Open With Enhanced and found it unsatisfactory, with its suggestions to download outside applications.

    Does anyone have any suggestions for other replacements for Win10's File Explorer > Open With dialog?

    Thanks

    File Explorer > Open With replacement?

    Unfortunately File Explorer on Win8 and later or Windows Explorer on Win7 and earlier is pretty much the core of Windows and can't be gotten rid of. One can install third-party file managers such as Total Commander and PowerDesk Pro [both are paid-for] or free ones such as FreeCommander that may server some purposes better. Total Commander and PowerDesk Pro can be useful as they have a built-in FTP feature useful for transferring files to a Web site, I've used it.
