Disk Order 3.2.5 (this one seemed to be very good TC alternative initially, but I had some issues with it - it's been a long time so don't remember details, and it also seems to be abandoned at the moment) Double Commander 0.5 (I tried this one some long time ago but it was feeling badly unfinished and didn't fit well into the OS X) DCommander 2.7 (I did quite like this one in the beginning, but there's only MAS variant and that has those annoying quarantine issues.) ForkLift 2.5 (also quite good though not with many features, but had some issues with some archives, especially 7z, the development seems to be progressing rather slowly) Path Finder 6 & 7 (quite good - though pretty far from the TC experience, but still missing full FTP support, no SFTP support.)

There exists an entitlement to avoid this, however Apple doesn't accept (in MAS) applications that require such entitlement.īecause I'm moving between OS X and Windows frequently and I use Total Commander at Windows, I prefer a file manager that would be very similar to it. That's the main reason why I ditched DCommander though I quite liked it otherwise. Will you please share what is the File Manager of your choice and why?įirst, I stopped using any file managers from Mac App Store due to them quarantining every single file they touch. The application is ForkLift2 ($29.95, trial version provided). Next day, received detailed answers to my questions with the chance provided to use the full-featured version. When I faced problems, mainly because I had the MAS-version, I contacted the support team. It was well designed in a Bauhaus simple style, clear, user-friendly, very flexible and last but not least powerful. In August I'd been browsing the Mac App Store and found a software. I stayed with the Finder that caused me a lot of headaches because of its bugs and limited functuonality. Tried a number of alternatives (some from the above list), but they were far from my liking for different reasons. When I started to use a Mac, I had a lot of trouble finding a Total Commander-like program. Total Manager - $14.99 (trial version provided). TotalFinder - $9 (14-day trial provided).Ĭommander One - Standard version is free, PRO Pack is $29.95.ĭCommander - $20.99 (30-day trial provided).įiles - Files Lite is free, the Pro version costs $24.99.

Path Finder - $39.95 (30-day trial provided). Nowdays, Mac users have a lot of options to find an orthodox or even unorthodox file manager for their liking that enhances or replaces the Finder:
