Like Windows Explorer, Only Perfect!

xplorer²

*** Due to the overwhelming response zabkat has agreed to extend this deal for another day - Enjoy! ***

Haven’t you been putting up with Windows Explorer long enough? Do you want to move to a more powerful, flexible file management system?

Or perhaps you've recently moved to Windows 7, but can't stand the frilly new interface with all the bells & whistles?

Why don’t we make a deal – you get to use a file explorer that looks substantially similar to the Windows Explorer you've grown accustomed to, but in reality is a powerhouse of intuitive and effective file organization!

At first glance, xplorer² looks like familiar territory, with its tree view user interface that lets you see your files and folders. But then, you start using xplorer², and suddenly realize the power beneath your fingertips – browse multiple folders using tabs, invoke a dual pane view, assign frequently used folders to Favorites (even use bookmark panes), instantly jump to root directories, and maintain easily accessible folder groups. All of that stuff that was impossible to do with Windows Explorer becomes an everyday occurrence with xplorer²!

Tired of opening file after file, looking for the right one? With xplorer²'s quick preview panel, you won’t have to anymore! Looking for a specific file using search terms? xplorer² has a powerhouse of a search utility, Omni-Finder, enabling fuzzy logic and text searches using file comments, picture data, attributes, keywords, and practically all shell column handlers that are supported by your Windows OS.

These are only the highlights. xplorer² comes with a wealth of features, including advanced file management for large transfers, file comparison and synchronization, and direct execution of commands from the console!

Version Alert! Since we last promoted xplorer², it has moved into version 1.8. The new version adds a number of powerful features. Take a look:

  • Robust deletion helps you to supercharge your permanent deletion tasks! Control what (if any) confirmations or errors you want to hear about, use filters to delete only certain files, queue deletions, pause deletions, and more!
  • An integrated command finder makes it simple for novices and old hands alike to locate commands... fast!
  • From clipboard to file: Dump your clipboard contents to a file, even if there are no files in the clipboard. Just hit the key and the clipboard will be instantly saved as a PNG file!
  • ... and much more!
Written by Derek Lee

xplorer² lets you:

  • Manage your files and folders more efficiently than ever before.
  • Browse multiple folders using tabs and a dual pane interface.
  • Store and access frequently used folders as Favorites.
  • Save folder groups for easy task-based access anytime.

xplorer² does so much, we can't even begin to cover it all here. Spend a few minutes browsing through the enormous collection of xplorer² video demos for a comprehensive introduction.

Who Needs xplorer²?
You do if you've ever:

  • Felt limited by the numerous weaknesses inherent in Windows Explorer.
  • Had to open multiple instances of Windows Explorer to view more than one folder.
  • Tried searching for a particular file in Windows Explorer, only to come up empty.

Reviews & Testimonials:

  • “I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU for making such a great product! I have to work with large numbers of files and folders in the course of my work. I used multiple specialized utilities to help me out, but was dependant on Explorer as my main window to my assets. I recently went in search of a better way and I found around 8 different products on the internet. I chose to try yours for a handful of features I knew I really wanted. Having used it for a couple of months now I cannot believe how many more great features I've come across that really help me in my work! It has far exceeded my expectations and has really changed my workflow techniques for the better.”- Christian Johnson
  • “Thank you for your fast response time. You provide not only a terrific product but also a great support. That's not so common these days.”- Antoine Bonin
  • “I don't usually get excited about this kind of thing, but I am soooo happy I found this program. I work with a large number of files; maybe 50 folders of 5k-40k files per folder. Windows Explorer is just unbarebly slow. It can litterally take 5 minutes to get a file listing with Windows Explorer and it takes just a few seconds xplorer2. This is going to save me a LOT OF TIME!”- Jeff Wilson
  • “I just wanted to give you a remarkable word or two. Not only is xplorer 2 unbelievably stable, with all the functions and it's capabilities, it's speed is amazing. Opening up drives, the screen fills instantly. And with all these built in extras to not see a bit of drag or lag is actually an exciting thing!”- Keith Breen
  • “Just a personal note. I had been using 2xExplorer for some time and recently purchased xplorer2. You have done some fabulous work here, and I'm completely addicted. As a programmer myself, I use the PC constantly, and xplorer2 is indispensable. It's one of the first programs that gets installed on any new system. So, Thanks!”- Matt Gatchell
  • “No complaints, no request for help, just my congratulations on, not only a wonderfully well thought-out and implemented program, but also on the manual, which sets a standard which few software comapnies of any size manage to attain. In some ways I think that writing a great manual is more difficult than writing a great program - but you've managed both! Thanks, from a very, very satisfied customer.”- Julian Eade

    What is your upgrade policy? Also, what does the licensing allow - all single user computers, or Desktop plus laptop, or other? Thanks!

    you can read about the upgrade policy here: www.zabkat.com/x2up.htm

    the licensing is quite liberal, it counts users not computers, so 1 key is good enough for all the computers you have exclusive access to. See Help Licence agreement for more details

    Does this offer include the lifetime updates? If not, how much will it be to include that and is it also discounted?
  • Dec 13 2009 2:20am
    nikos bozinis (zabkat Vendor)
    the discount is only for the main program. You can add any other extras like the lifetime upgrade but at normal cost

    Just my $0.02...

    I have been using this for quite some time and would be lost without it!!! Now when I am at a computer that does not have xplorer2 on it and have to use MS File Explorer... I really realize just how much I appreciate xplorer2!!!!

    This is a very good file manager, except for the unattractive icons and colors. The interface is frankly an eyesore. If looks do not count, why use a GUI at all?! To the developer: Maybe you should atleast allow the user to change the background of the toolbar area to blue.

    xplorer² stresses function over form but there are a number of toolbar skins available here:

    you can even make your own skin!

    Discount page is not showing discount. It come up £19.61 which is roughly $29.95 and not £9.22 which would be nearer $14.95

    I now see that when you click next it shows the discount..
    Strange why the payment provider does not show the discount on the initial page.

    I use a freeware *4* pane file browser (fully configurable 1-4), Q-Dir. I now cannot use anything less than 4 panes, 2 is not enough.

    One very annoying aspect of xplorer2...

    I have xplorer2 but find one aspect very annoying. I would like for files to be displayed by default in alphabetical order... unfortunately, I haven't been able to get xplorer2 to do this, despite instructions from the developer. As a result, files appear in some order (mostly alphabetical) but files that I may have used most recently are not alphabetized. As a result, I'm always having to click on the File Name Col. heading to alphabetize so that the file I'm looking for appears where I would expect. I'm considering switching to Directory Opus (although it is 3x more expensive).

    Does this price also apply to the 64 bit version? When I downloaded via the "Try before you buy" button, the installer told me that there is a specific version for 64 bit Windows (which I'm running).
  • Dec 18 2009 12:43pm
    nikos bozinis (zabkat Vendor)
    the same license key can be used for both 32 and 64 bit versions, you can have them both installed. For my liberal licensing scheme see further up

    Hi Nikos!

    Last night I purchased explorer2. Unfortunately, I somehow missed checking the lifetime update before finalizing the order. Is there any way that I can add it? Also, what is the mobile version?

    Thanks!

    I use xplorer² for ages and I love the program. I've tried many other file manager before but none comes close to it. I really recommend it.

    I am trying to purchase this before midnight and it won't let me.
