Oliver also covers mobile gaming for iMore, with Apple Arcade a particular focus. Current expertise includes iOS, macOS, streaming services, and pretty much anything that has a battery or plugs into a wall. Since then he's seen the growth of the smartphone world, backed by iPhone, and new product categories come and go. Having grown up using PCs and spending far too much money on graphics card and flashy RAM, Oliver switched to the Mac with a G5 iMac and hasn't looked back. At iMore, Oliver is involved in daily news coverage and, not being short of opinions, has been known to 'explain' those thoughts in more detail, too. He has also been published in print for Macworld, including cover stories. What’s the feasibility of implementing just some very basic, non-intrusive features such as these under El Capitan? I would probably pay $5 for the folders-on-top feature alone.Oliver Haslam has written about Apple and the wider technology business for more than a decade with bylines on How-To Geek, PC Mag, iDownloadBlog, and many more. I know there’s a way to get them on top when sorting by kind, but I want them purely alphabetical and on top, just like they are in Windows. So to be honest the only thing I really, really miss is putting folders on top. In fact, for showing hidden files, on the rare occasions I need it I can always type a command into the Terminal ( ). For copying paths there is a new option in El Capitan (right-click, then hold the Option key to see “Copy … as Pathname”), and cutting/pasting is possible by using Cmd-C followed by Cmd-Option-V, so that’s not an issue. To be honest the native tabs are enough for me and I never used the visor or split-panes, so I disabled everything else and those are the only features I really need.
Just the following features are really important to me:
I wish I could get some service extensions (like copy/paste file) but can live with what is provided.Īll said though, I will really miss Total Finder and its integration with Finder!

Standard shortcuts, single or full pane, tabs, Quickview, customizable menu bar, folders sorted on top, etc. But this evening I used it exclusively and found it meets my needs. I hadn’t focused on Forklift as a Finder replacement - I had only used it for ftp and sftp. It doesn’t give any information so I am not sure how you would decide to kill a process. iKey, Keyboard Maestro, and DragThing, launcher programs that let you run a script by typing a. The ability to view processes is nice, but only of minimal utility. FastScripts, a replacement for Apples Script Menu. Also, I prefer a side bar which I couldn’t find a way to enable. Not to my liking as it uses some non standard shortcuts for things like Quickview (space bar does not work for me).

And it sounds like from your testing the update required may be minimal. I did see the post you mentioned on the Path Finder pages. Please don’t be shy and propose your own tips.īeen doing further investigation and testing this evening. I plan to update this post with more alternatives.

I came across this brand new file manager Commander One, which looks promising, give it a try!Īn offer for TotalFinder users: 50% Off on Commander One PRO Pack However, you can certainly hide the Dock and use one of several popular Dock-like alternatives. The direct alternative XtraFinder has the same problem as TotalFinder. I decided to compile a list of alternatives for users who are looking for a replacement. Since TotalFinder does not launch with System Integrity Protection under El Capitan.
