Comments about Double Commander as an Alternative to Total Commander
It looks very similar and can do almost everything that Total Commander can - but it's cross-platform!
A completely free, multi-platform tool is available that serves as an excellent alternative to Total Commander. It offers high customization, including the ability to use plugins (*.wlx, *.wlc, etc.). However, when utilized in Windows, adjustments are needed for a Windows-like experience. In addition, I also use FreeCommander on Windows, which is less customizable but more user-friendly than the previous tool. It also supports Total Commander plugins.
Now this is something worth to use.While I was using TC, it couldn't deal with deleting files with bugged long file names above 256 characters, but that tool did the job without any problems. I recommend!
