I bet there are no users south side of 50 years old :)
Oy! :evil:

I still use Total Commander for certain tasks (copying large folder structures at work), and I won't be 50 anytime soon.

Old people use the Explorer and keep getting lost in it. Source: Me having watched old people using a computer.

Xplorer2 is my daily driver but TC can browse FTP and ADB (Android) natively with WFX plugins. That's a huge advantage for me.

Packed with unique timesaving features like spreadsheet property change
Only now did I find about this, which was introduced below.
viewtopic.php?p=70329&hilit=spreadsheet#p70329

Another thing I found out is that the spreadsheet mode option (Tools > Options... > Advanced) is dependent on the double-click renaming option (Tools > Options... > View panes). When the double-click renaming is turned off, the spreadsheet mode is automatically turned off.

Personally, I always turn off renaming from mouse :D
