A file manager taking a nod from Norton Commander.
An excellent alternative to the Windows Explorer interface, WinNC takes a nod from Norton Commander's style and builds on it for a modern computer. The tabbed interface simply makes exploring your PC so much easier and more organized. The Dutch developer introduces "Projects" which can include and organize specified files and folders from different parts (or drives) connected to your coputer.
WinNc also includes the shortcuts you'd normally see in Windows Explorer. It can copy, move, delete, compress and more.
The panel layout is also well thought out, allowing you to complete multiple tasks at the same time when configured. Coming bundled with WinNc Norton Commander is a slideshow viewer, better than the one that comes with Windows. In fact, on the point of the layout, I think it looks great taking a step back from the curving look that Windows 7 presents and going back to straighter lines.
The program supports Windows 7 natively but can also run on older versions.
