Directory Opus is a file manager that intends to replace Windows Explorer.
The interface of the software includes a treeview and dual screens, so you can navigate with ease within your computer.
So, you can cut, copy (e.g. file names, full path names, URLs, MD5 checksums) and paste files, change the viewing mode, calculate folder sizes and select files (e.g. same extensions, source to destination).
But you can also use a search function, assign keyboard hotkeys, synchronize data, find duplicate files, join or split files, convert, rotate, as well as and make thumbnails or a slideshow out of images.
Additionally, you can connect to a network drive, run Command Prompter, open a new lister, edit metadata, set labels, enter file descriptions, create and organize a favorites list and an address book, connect to FTP, create archives and extract content from compressed files, view FTP logs, as well as backup and restore your Directory Opus configuration.
Furthermore, you can completely configure the program preferences when it comes to file display mode, file operations, folder tabs, folder tree, internet, program launch, layout and styles, photo sharing, toolbars, viewer, ZIP and other archives, and more.
The software uses a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a well-written help file and didn't freeze or crash during our tests.
All in all, Directory Opus incorporates some simple but powerful options for a file manager and is simple to use even by inexperienced individuals. We highly recommend it this tool.

What's New in This Release:
New features / minor changes:

· A new modifier for file and folder codes, escbackslash will escape all backslashes in paths. This is like the old escnl except it escapes all backslashes, not just those before the letter n. e.g. {filepath|escbackslash} turns C:NewTest.txt into C:NewTest.txt.
· The Clipboard SET command has a new argument, EXPANDNEWLINES, which allows you to use n within the clipboard text to insert new lines. Use to insert a literal backslash and use the new escbackslash modifier when inserting paths.
· The Clipboard ADD SET command has a new argument, NEWLINEIFADDING, which will insert a new line before the next text when adding to existing text on the clipboard. (If there is no existing text then the extra new line is not inserted.)
· In inline rename (and other edit controls that have the same behavior),...
