Download Total Commander 7.0 release candidate 1

After four beta releases, Christian Ghisler has just released the first release candidate of version 7.0 of his popular file manager. Total Commander is for many an indispensable tool under Windows because of its ease of use, clarity and versatility. The program has various file manipulation options, a built-in ftp client, a multi-rename tool and support for a large number of compression formats. In addition, the functionality can be further extended with plugins. In version 7.0, the appearance has been slightly updated, the built-in ftp client can now also support Secure FTP over SSL/TLS, and you will be asked whether an action should be performed as an administrator if it fails due to insufficient rights. The main changes in this release are summarized as follows:

The most important changes:

• Load Network Neighborhood in background thread, so plugins can be accessed more quickly, especially on Vista.
• Separate tree: Also load initial root view of tree in the background, to speed up starting of Total Commander
• Files – Split File: Remember user-defined split sizes (max 20)
• Full list: history.txt
