(To be honest, I prefer using Voidtools "Everything" but XYplorer's search is still extremely good). *Highly customizable visual filters allowing only certain files and folders to be displayed depending on the your filter criteria. *Custom file copier that supports verification, pause and resume, and action upon file collisions.

You can now do batch actions on those files. Tag all files in completely different directory with a green label and then do a search for green label. *Tagging and Color Labeling of all files. For example if you set it to open images using FastStone MaxView, it will automatically open up any images that you open through XYplorer through MaxView regardless of the system's file associations. Allows you to use it on a flash drive with other portable apps. *Customizable portable file associations. *Customizable color-coding for files based on attributes, date, age, types, size, or any combinations. OMG!! I can't believe it's offered for free today! I actually already own it but just to reiterate some of the features that it has. Incidentally, thank you Ashraf and Giovanni for your enlighting comments over the years. That being said, I will, without a doubt, enjoy using XYplorer on my USBs on which I don't have Directory Opus installed. In my humble opinion, it is the ultimate File Manager, although somewhat expensive, I must agree, but it suits my needs perfectly.

Opus also has Tabs to navigate folders, and so, so much more. and others for all those free licenses!) and it's running very smoothly. I don't event use the start button anymore and erased most entries from there as they were slowing down the startup process (I have over 300 programs installed: thanks to GOTD!. I must say though that I have been using Directory Opus on my PC for years now, and customized it so that I use it as my main console to access everything on my computer. I took this opportunity to install this excellent program on my USB keys.
