Speed Commander is a file manager for Windows and the Norton Commander - clones counted. It is typical of this type of file manager that they can be operated entirely via the keyboard, whereby a quasi-standard for key assignments has emerged which is derived from the MS-DOS original.

development

The first version was completed in May 1993 and went on sale in September 1993. In the newer versions, the user interface and operation can be changed to such an extent that the look and feel of Windows Explorer can be reproduced while maintaining the extended performance as far as possible. In addition to the file manager and the possibility of integrating other programs, SpeedCommander offers several integrated tools, including a text editor (SpeedEdit), a multi-format viewer, a file packer and other common tools.

The functions of the standard variant include:

  • Fully integrated support for all common archiving formats as well as its own archive format ( SQX )
  • FTP client with SFTP and SSL support
  • Integration of Internet Explorer
  • Breadcrumb navigation

  • Secure deletion of files
  • Integrated command line

SpeedCommander Pro
