I did search and nothing came upso here it is a tiny and pretty annoying explorer replacement.

Someone may like it.
It doesn't write any settings at all, it has no settings to write ;(

The download page says you may need MFC42.DLL to run it.
On XP SP2 I did which numps it's tiny 32KB up to 381KB.
That's UPX'd with LZMA too, oh well.
It's still pretty small.

You sure know how to sell a product.

[EDIT] As a mod I feel a bit of obligation to be more helpful, but the program you pointed out looks so damn dull that I can't really get any motivation to do anything about it. I mean, with such fantastic software as UltraExplorer and TabbyFile (minimalist but not to the point of shunning positive additions), do we really need a lackluster explorer replacement? I've always pondered this - should the Portable Freeware Collection be an all-inclusive guide that even has "that one thing someone's cousin wrote that looks a lot like tetris" or should we focus on the exceptional software?

(Remember the Apple and Pear Diet Calculator? )

mfc42.dll comes as standard in all windows versions since 98, so most people won't need it anyway.
BTW Eweynes's FileMan is much more powerful and compressed takes 42 KB. I still recommend bigger things though.

I tells it as I sees it

Just to add, I tried the second version too and........ *sobs*
It's supposed to be user configurable, you can choose different icons and........ *sobs*

I'm not sure if it'e better or worse.

m^(2) Thanks for the link, I only wanted something tiny just to open several separate panes on like explorer.
I'm not giving up my freecommander for it

(Remember the Apple and Pear Diet Calculator? Razz)

Is that anything to do with London stairs?
I doubt I could eat a whole landing

Actually tabbyfile and UltraExplorer can both do dual-pane, though obviously UltraExplorer is a lot bigger (and does a whole helluva lot more). The Apple and Pear Diet Calculator was an interesting little guy that basically took some info from ya and told you what you're shaped like: an apple or a pear. That's pretty much it.

Actually I didn't want the dual pane.
I'm currently using a43 as a single pane, multiple instance as the default folder manager with my UTBox.
It's working really nicely as I can have multiple movable windows ala explorer (yes I like unusual setups)

I was just looking for something tiny that would so the same thing, without any extras, but smaller.
Am I making any sense?

Just tried fileman but way too many reg entries.

I do love Tabbyfile, but 2MB is bigger than my whole shell.
Ideally I'd like something under 50K
