filemanager statistics

Post by *NorM »

Hi!
Just wondering?!? Are there any statistics in what filemanager people use? I guess, a wild guess :wink: windows explorer is the dominating filemanager.

How odd are we? :twisted:

Hi NorM,
Why do you need statistics ?
The best is not allways the most used...
The best is not allways the cheapest or the dearest...
The best is the one I love... and I can't live without him... I said TC... :D
Regards,
Paul

:shock: Hmm – well… I don´t need any statistics of the popularity of TC. I just would found it interesting. Just like you found it interesting making homemade poems about TC. :wink:

Shouldn't that be: "The best is not allways the most expensive or the dearest..." :P

The quadrature of the circle…

Post by *Clo »

:) Hello !
- That you wish to know is as so easy to solve as the quadrature of the circle :P

- What criterion might be considered as preferential?
• The sold licences number ?
- That could give an idea roughly… But it's faked : more a file-manager is good, more it's cracked / hacked / copied…
- Moreover, not sure that the Authors or their Companies would provide such informations :|
• The registration fee ?
- Not significant at all ! TC is much cheaper than some others, not multilingual and having paying updates !
- And not a so big bunch of tools / plugins / various addons, the most being freewares… And / or / limited trial periods, limited features as trial versions, while TC has not…
- In competitors' programs, you could find a point here and there better than TC (better being a quite subjective epithet in many cases !)
- Globally, TC is still in head, in my opinion.
• The worldwide diffusion?
- With regard to the number of languages in which TC is translated, you can place it again at the head of your list !
I guess, a wild guess :wink: windows explorer is the dominating filemanager.
- What a good joke ! :lol:
¤ This is an item you are bound to have since the 9x versions and newer, because it's the shell, and isn't possible to change that, except if you are an expert !
- With old Win 3.x, you could change the shell easily, even use W/TC as the shell…
- Here, we are talking of file-managers -even competitors sometimes-, not of a thing you can't avoid to get when purchasing any recent Windows™ :x

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
Claude
