A web feed keeps you informed about updates to a website. This wiki and Total Commander's official forum offer several feeds.

Two commonly used web feed types are Atom and RSS. Both types are available.

Each feed has an associated URL that can be entered in a feed reader program. An example of a program that can be used to subscribe to web feeds is Mozilla Thunderbird.

There are two series of forum feeds available: the forum feeds built into the forum software and forum smartfeeds, an extension of the forum software.
