Help/Feedback
See Online Help - User manual or Download PDF

This program doesn't attempt to be just a better-looking Windows File Explorer with tabs or a MacOS Finder for Windows with columns, but to challenge the existing workflows that remained unchanged since the '90s. That is where your feedback comes in, and with it, the program is constantly evolving.

Designer? You can improve the look of the program by designing your own themes through editing theme XAML files or creating your own icons for files, folders, or menu items.
Developer or sysadmin? Run your own PowerShell, Batch, Python or other scripts on selected items or current folder (look for the scripts menu) to extend program's functionality.
