I created a FreeCommander Beginners Configuration (Lean)

#1 Post by asdf33 » 07.01.2021, 19:39

Hey folks,

I'm using FreeCommander for over a year now and I'm very happy that there is such a good Windows Explorer alternative. So my thanks go to all the devs and supporters :)

To give something back, I created a Beginners FreeCommander Configuration. This has a leaner UI (imo) and can therefore help people who want to switch from the vanilla explorer.
-> I removed some of the less needed or duplicate elements (incl. Toolbars), set the "spacebar" key for switching between single/split view (super helpful), and included file type based filtering, to easily see which files where modified recently. And some more...

Maybe this is helpful for some of you.

Cheers

Are there any other FreeCommander configurations created by forum members here (or otherwise) that you're aware of?

Thanks!

But what constitutes as a proper configuration - i.e. a useful ready to use full blown set of options? Including keyword shortcuts?

I remember when I started using it by recommendation of a friend that he sent me his settings and it did not help me much- I ditched them and created my own from scratch. Since then I mainly indulged myself in building a Color Scheme and Favorite Toolbars. That last one is easily importable but that second would not make sense to other users. But come to think of it I also adjusted other universal elements like the Status Bar, which would be worth sharing

But having looked at your presentation it would be extra worth to have a thread of such posts - alike to this one viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8332 for Color Schemes
