Whatever, using explorer instead of NC’s clones is a total waste of time…

One day I was “benchmarking” speed of performing simple copy operation (with finding file). Exact file, exact location. Explorer vs. Total Commander, using only keyboard. Results? Explorer: >30 seconds, TC: 12 ;]

Hehe, good point guys. The thing is, I’ve already made my choice. It’s called Frigate :)

BTW this type of navigation works in many places outside Explorer, which was just an example.

I second that. :) Total Commander may not fit people who are set on using freeware only, but even they have some proper file manager options like FreeCommander (pretty much clone of core TotCom functons).

I prefer using keyboard shortcuts wherever feasible

So, why are you wasting your time by not using something like Total Commander?
