Excellent file manager for my uses. Would be even better if it restored open directories from a previous instance (saved in profile?) but bookmarks are so easy to use that it doesn't matter.

After Gnome "Files" stopped running half of the programs, not to mention the impossibility of copy-pasting into the address bar, I tried several file-managers and this small and nimble PCMan turned out to be the best choice for me.

It hasn't be updated in one entire year, and it's still the best file manager out there.

Miracle program. PCManFM can somehow read a system partition that Windows refuses to read, saying it is corrupt. I wish I knew how this is possible.
