Well, that seems to be nagware, so I give it a pass. Normal users can ignore the extras and use it as a basic file manager, which still blows Windows Explorer out of the water. The amount of tools that Unreal Commander has is insane, and that's something power users will love. In comparison, the unregistered version of Total Commander has a similar screen on every run. You can wait for a few seconds to close it, and continue using the program for free. You will see a screen like this once a day, asking for an optional donation. The license key will expire in 25 days, but can be set to update automatically. You can access it from the Help menu to get your SystemID that can be used to get a free license key from the official website. Though Unreal Commander is freeware, it has a license management system. Download, extract the files and add them to the file manager from the Options > Plugins page. Unreal Commander supports Total Commander plugins in the Lister. There are Visual Styles available for download which also change the appearance of the program. You can switch to a different theme from Options > Graphic Themes. Unreal Commander comes with many themes for the interface and optional ones for the Toolbar. These include a thumbnail view, vertical mode, and a quick view (file preview) mode. Modify the current appearance of Unreal Commander using the options in the Show menu.

The Context Menu can be accessed by pressing Shift + F10. You can create Symbolic Links to files that are in other drives. after backups or when downloads complete. The Hash Creation and Verification options are especially handy to ensure the authenticity of files, e.g. The File menu has various options including a Comparison tool, a file archiver, splitter and merger. Options for renaming include preserving the original name while adding additional tags, or renaming from scratch, regular expressions, uppercase/lowercase switcher, and find & replace. Select some files or folders and you can rename them by adding a prefix, suffix, incremental counter, date (year/month/day), time (hours/minutes/seconds), extension, etc. You will find the Multi-rename tool in the Commands menu. It also has options to define the backup interval in terms of hours, minutes or days, and when older records should be removed. To do this, navigate to the location of the folder/files in one of the panes, and then click on Tools > Backup Utility > Add new backup task. Next, you'll need to choose the content that has to be backed up, i.e. The Backup utility, also under the Tools menu, lets you set up a folder where the program should save the content in.

The toolbar and menubar contain many tools, which we'll talk about in a bit.
There is a drive bar at the top of each pane that's useful for jumping between drives. Unreal Commander has a dual pane interface, which makes it easy to navigate between two folders and manage files quickly.
