Windows Explorer Alternative Mini Explorer

Mini Explorer is a tiny little freeware application that can be started from everywhere. Its small size of only 92K makes it a blazing fast alternative for the built in Microsoft Windows Explorer. Let us take a look at some of the programs features:

  • Can handle virtually unlimited number of files without sacrificing speed
  • Queue for copying/moving files: add files from different locations to the queue, and copy/move them all to another folder
  • Fast file copying and moving with error protection and error log; no more boring Preparing to copy… messages
  • Fast one/two-key shortcuts for most commands
  • Text Preview window

    Certainly not as small but a genuine alternative to Windows Explorer in terms of interface and usefulness is XYPlorer. Now commercial, the last freeware version is still available from http://www.xyplorer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=611.
