  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Fixed: Copy/Move now report what happened and clear source selection when a full operation completes (configurable in Edit menu). Rename, symlink, and single-file compress now correctly preserve file extensions instead of including them in the selected text. Added Enter/Escape keyboard support to five dialogs that previously required the mouse (multi-rename, custom commands, folder sync, SFTP connection editors). Fixed a bug where pressing Enter on a folder outside the allowed sandbox scope could silently switch to a different folder. The app now remembers your last-used selection mask, search text, split size, archive format, and rename pattern. Fixed a double-click issue that could create a duplicate archive or rename operation.
