About Thunar
Thunar is a modern file manager for the Xfce Desktop Environment. Thunar has been designed from the ground up to be fast and easy to use. Its user interface is clean and intuitive and does not include any confusing or useless options by default. Thunar starts up quickly and navigating through files and folders is fast and responsive. Thunar plugins can be installed as separate, additional packages in order to extend the functionality of Thunar. Most Thunar plugins offer additional options on files in the context menu or via shortcut. The interface which is used by thunar plugins is the thunar API.

Far Manager
Far Manager is a program for managing files and archives in Windows operating systems. Far Manager works in text mode and provides a simple and intuitive interface for performing most of the necessary actions. Far Manager has a multi-language, easily configurable interface. File system navigation is made easier through the use of color highlighting and sort groups. The functionality of Far Manager is greatly extended by external DLL modules — plugins (made possible by a special set of interfaces — the Plugins API).

Clover
Clover is an extension of Windows Explorer, to add multi-tab functionality similar to Google Chrome browser. After installing Clover, you will be able to open multiple folders within the same window, and you can also add folder bookmarks. Clover currently only supports Windows XP and later versions of Windows (32bit/64bit), and supports the most common languages such as English and Chinese. Clover was a Windows Explorer plug-in integrated into the system, and the externally opened Explorer window was automatically hosted into Clover window. The Clover program does not get any message from the user. Some users use optimization software to disable the TabHelper plug-in, this will result in such a result, open IE’s “Manage Add-ons” menu, and look into “ExplorerWatcher class”. Just like Google Chrome, Clover works with many basic shortcut keys to help you navigate better and faster through your tabbed folders.

fman
Press Ctrl+P to quickly jump to a directory. fman remembers which folders you visit most often and suggests them first. This is so much quicker than manually navigating through directory hierarchies. Tailor fman to your needs via its powerful plugin system. Install plugins created by others, or write your own and share them with the community. fman is an alternative to file managers such as Explorer on Windows or Finder on macOS. You use it to browse directories, copy or move files, mount external drives, etc. It lets you perform these tasks much more efficiently than other file managers. This makes it extremely easy to copy or move files. You just open the directory you want to copy from on one side and the destination on the other. A simple keyboard shortcut then performs the copy. Unlike other file managers, you don't have to deal with multiple windows, drag files, or copy/paste in separate steps. File-related tasks can be carried out much more quickly that way.

It is designed to be unobtrusive with smart workflows to match the trains of thought. nnn can analyze disk usage, batch rename, launch apps and pick files.
