Does anybody use Path Finder

[Syther101]

Somebody added it to a list of recommend Apps to get when you first get you're mac.

I have had a quick look at it but I'm quite sceptical as to wether it can actually be used as a viable replacement for finder.

Does anybody else here use it as such and if so would you recommend it as a purchase

Thanks

No, it's good but it lacks that proper integration and requires that bit of extra effort to use. The best solution imo is Finder + TotalFinder (or XtraFinder if you prefer free).

Just installed XtraFinder. Works great. Fixes many stupid things such as putting folders on top when sorting. And I have never been a fan off the way you have the ... in the middle of long files names so having it auto expand to the file size is great.

Thanks!

I've never seen that as an issue, I prefer it that the folders are mixed in with the files. On windows its drives me nuts

Might be the fact that I came from Windows. But none the less when trying to get to a certain file having the folder at the top to go to the next directory is a lot easier. Especially when I'm on my very much un-sorted storage drive which is cluttered with random TV shows I really must sort at some point XD
