different packer formats or file viewer for special file formats. Many plugins are freely available for e.g. The utility supports extensibility via plugins, and it can bind external programs for viewing or editing files. It is for the most part compatible with Linux using Wine. It features a built-in FTP client, tabbed interface, file compare, archive file navigation, and a multi-rename tool with regular expression support. Originally coded using Delphi, latest Windows 64-bit versions were developed with Lazarus. For this I add a new sub-menu called ‘Install’ and add items like this:Īcrobat Reader DC winget install -e -id Commander (formerly Windows Commander) is a shareware orthodox file manager for Windows, Windows Phone, Windows Mobile/ Windows CE and Android, developed by Christian Ghisler. You might choose to use another package manager like chocolatey – the outcome is the same. Thanks to Microsoft’s winget package manager, I’ve been exploring more the idea of using the menu to install applications on the fly (especially great for setting up new computers). Define how the signtool commands will run: !define OutFileSignSHA1 "C:\CodeSign\SignTool sign /f $ Define the variables at the top of your NSI: !define OutFileSignCertificate "C:\codecert.pfx"Ģ. The code to achieve this looks like the following (this was adapted from the Winamp forums):ġ. These certificates are helpful for other things too, not use signing. This is a paid option that utilizes codesigning tools in Microsoft’s SDK as well as a certificate from Code Signing Store ($74 /year). So, in an effort to avoid this, I self-sign the installer. One of the challenges with creating an installer is that it might be blocked by Antivirus scanners or Windows itself. This is the NSIS code to do that: Exec "Taskkill /IM TcPowerPack.EXE /F" So, I looked for an internal Windows tool that could do it and found taskkill worked. I previously used tools such as my own Prockill and ProcessHacker, but these tools didn’t always avoid Antivirus false positives. This tool allows me to build the full Total Commander install with utilities and provides an uninstaller for quick removal.Īt the start of the install process, I kill all running Total Commander instances. To achieve this, I use the incredibly useful NSIS and the rarer NSIS 64-bit compiled edition ( download). To build, save, and update Total Commander, I needed a way to build all the tools and modifications I wanted in a lean, understated but maximally useful package. These details are mainly for use on 64-bit versions of windows, but with some alterations, all of this works on 32-bit if you support that. In parallel, I wrap a number of things around my copy of Total Commander to make it truly useful on machines I work with and operate. With every new update, the tool gets better and better.
Over the years, I’ve used the file manager in a number of different and novel ways.
