An internal file viewer can be used to preview more than 30 file formats and there is even file compression support – this can be used to both compress and decompress files. There is an integrated media player that can be used to listen to music while you work, but there are a range of more serious and useful tools available. But where EF Commander really shines is when you start to look at the number of built in tools and utilities that are included that mean an increase number of tasks can be performed without the need to turn to other software. This means that a single program window can be used to house multiple folders that you can easily switch between.

One of the most useful features for anyone who works with a number of folders at the same time is the dual paned view coupled with the tabbed interface. EF Commander is one such tool, designed to be a professional level replacement for Windows Explorer, providing you with a range of powerful new options and improving on those already to be found in Windows’ built-in utility. Windows Explorer is fine for everyday file management needs, but it is less than ideal if you need to work with files more frequently, you’re going to need a more powerful tool.
