I know this is not much help but I have been a user of xyplorer for years and I really like it. Constantly improving and while it has some quirks I like it a lot

I too use XYplorer. The site gives you a list of its features which, for my purposes, are comparable or better than others. It has become indispensable for my workflow and I recommend it as well. If this is a consideration, it is available as a portable “install.”

XYplorer is the best software I’ve ever used on Windows. I have a lifetime license I got many years ago and it’s always running. I’ve never had any bug or issues with it. Do check out the website, it is very informative and I don’t think it exaggerates. It is indeed extremely fast and responsive. Right now it’s using only 10 MB of memory according to task manager. It’s actively developed, it has a large and active group of users, excellent forum, it’s portable, customizable, it goes on and on. Hm, I think I sound like a shill! But it really is the real thing.

Interesting. I have a trial of Directory Opus installed right now and was thinking of taking advantage of their current sale. What I like most is DO’s implementation of a flat view, where it’s possible to see all the contents of a folder hierarchy in a sortable flat list with the usual columns.* My memory is that XYplorer has something similar, but I don’t remember whether the implementation is as robust.
(*Side note: Seeing hierarchically organized items in a sortable and editable flat list with columns is one of my favorite features to have in an outliner, but it’s all too rare. InfoQube and Tinderbox can both do it well.)
