ExplorerMax
The chrome-styled tabbing feature enables you to open multiple files at the same window. It’s easy to switch from one to another. As for your favorites, you may add bookmarks with a drag-and-drop. In this way, you’ll get a better overview and always focus on the key part. If you want to track the file you managed at a certain moment, go and check Timeline. Here, you can find your browsing history classified into four groups -- Today, Yesterday, Latest Week, Latest Month. Then, the parent path is soon accessible. Moreover, for unwanted history, clearing them all or selectively is up to you. In ExplorerMax, you never bother to suffer from a slow search. As long as you enter the keyword in the search box and set the target file type, you can get grouped results in a second. When you have requests for fluent interactions between two tabs, dual-pane is a great solution to display an overview and save your time from frequent tab-switching.

Duplicate & Same Files Searcher
Duplicate & Same Files Searcher is an advanced tool for locating and dealing with duplicate files. The program locates files with identical content only; unlike some similar tools, you can't compare files just on their names, dates or size. This makes Duplicate & Same Files Searcher relatively slow, as it must read and process every single file in your selected group. Fortunately, there are some ways to improve performance. You can direct the program to scan a particular folder tree only, to examine files of a particular type, to ignore others, to check only files of a defined size. There are some options you won't often see elsewhere. You can have the program check for (or ignore) differences in alternate data streams, to ignore different ID3 tags in MP3s, to skip symbolic links (or not). When the scan is complete, each set of duplicates is listed, along with their file names, paths, size, dates, even their number of fragments (whether they're fragmented or not).
