Do you File Management?

[Nerd Rage LBC]

Does anyone else here use programs like; File Commander, Directory Opus, Total Commander, and etc? 

 

What do you use for file management tools? I was debating on using Free Commander but have not yet. I have used DOpus in the past and I liked it but dang that price tag...

 

For tagging software, what do you guys use? (Music file tagging like MusicBrainz Picard etc)

 

List any management tools you guys use/suggest! My 2x1TB Drives look like a tornado hit the library lol...

Mine's called Finder Tags and HFS+...

Nah. I prefer chaos. Entropy is great.

I use Ccleaner?   If that counts. 

 

I don't file manage because my friend watched this video and deleted his C:/ drive.

I would never trust a program to do my file management. I do it all by myself. Every few months I take a few hours to delete unused crap, and organize things. My 1tb storage drive also looks like a tornado went through it. And now that I just realized I have 64gb left even though it's cleanish, I might start looking for an external hard drive, rugged type. I broke my last one.

I dod it manually

[Damikiller37]

I do it manually simply by placing all of the things in separate folders all of my content in something that will make it easy for me to get around. So for example for music I will have the artists name as the first folder and then the album year followed by the name so that I can find the right song easily if I'm not using a music player to do it.

Maybe I'm old school and like managers like file commander lol - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Commander

That pretty much how I'd sort music, but I was referring to the ID3 tags (metadata I think it's called)

MP3Tag for Music tagging. 

CCleaner occasionally, on Windows. No longer need it, running Arch Linux.

 

I keep things organized as I go.

File managers exist? What good do they do that separating into windows and etc can't? (genuine question)

It's kind of like a all in one utility, kind of like a Swiss Army Knife of file management. 

I like using them for ease of control, personal preference.

CONSOLIDATION <----google this word, find a software that does it. It is the best word to use in IT and will save you a bucket tonne of time

But I also use SyncToy at home, free Microsoft software.
