Sometimes, we may need one or more special functions, while exploring our files and folders, but Windows does not have too much to offer. This is where Super Explorer comes in. It is designed to be a replacement for Windows Explorer and it can make your work easier. Besides navigating through your files and folders, you can perform various actions, for which you would normally need external applications.

Due to its small setup kit, Super Explorer can be downloaded and installed on any computer, with any Windows version, in less than a minute. Although the application is not free, a fully functional trial version is available and it can be used without any kind of restrictions, until it expires.

The initial layout of the interface resembles a standard explorer window. Besides the navigation pane located on the left side and the files and folders list, on the right side, you can find a wide variety of options, located on a series of toolbars. You can use them for basic tasks, like copying, cutting, pasting or deleting files or you can use them to convert images, compress or encrypt files and more.

A clear advantage over Windows Explorer is the fact that Super Explorer allows you to create up to four windows, within the main interface. Furthermore, you can cascade the windows or tile them horizontally or vertically. With two simple clicks, you can switch from an explorer-like interface to a multi-panel file manager, like Total Commander or other similar applications.

Additionally, you can bring up a preview window, within the same interface, which can be tiled or cascaded along with the other windows. Besides showing the selected images, the preview window can be used to play audio and video files or open documents. Additional features can be found in the Tools menu. You can launch the operating system's calculator, access various Control Panel sections, open a DOS prompt, bring up a clipboard viewer and more.

Pros

Super Explorer allows you to work in a familiar environment, with easy to understand functions. You can change the layout of the interface by creating up to four explorer-like windows, within the main window. The software places a series of useful tools at your disposal, for compressing or encrypting files, converting images and more.

Cons

The icons and colors of the user interface are a bit old. If you are tired of Windows Explorer's limitations, Super Explorer's powerful features will satisfy all your needs.
