Total Commander® is a file manager. The aim of the program is to put you in total control of your files. Total Commander comes in different versions for multiple platforms. Total Commander for Windows is discussed on this page. For other platforms see Total Commander family.
Total Commander (formerly known as Windows Commander) was first developed for the Windows platform. It has two fixed windows side by side like a well-known file manager for DOS. Total Commander is shareware. If you use the program for longer than one month, you are expected to register it. The unregistered program is fully functional. Unregistered users only have to click one of three buttons to dismiss a nag screen at start-up. Registration includes all future updates (until further notice), provided that you get the latest version yourself by downloading it. Total Commander comes in three different versions:
| Version | Supported OS |
|---|---|
| Total Commander 64-bit | Windows XP/Vista/7/8/8.1/10/11 64-bit Server versions based on these Windows versions |
| Total Commander 32-bit | Windows XP/Vista/7/8/8.1/10/11 32-bit & 64-bit Windows 95/98/ME/NT3.51/NT4.0/2000 Server versions based on these Windows versions |
| Total Commander 16-bit (no longer developed) |
