Norton Commander 64-bit Download
Bill Keplar
?
Hello and sorry for my question
i used since Windows xp in my a:\
a disk with the volkov commander to be with some comfort using
dosbox then i have a new computer with 12gb ram so was nessesary
to have a 64bit Windows installed because i was using the same
harddisk with the dosbox 0.72 installed the volkov commander was
working fine again.now i have installed the new dosbox 0.73 in my
windows 7 64bit and now my disk in a:\ is no more able to be used.
exist something like norton commander for dosbox?
sorry for my english
For anyone who wants to use NC or VC:
Make a folder "srv" at DOSbox's root
Extract a downloaded Volkov/Norton commander into srv/(nc# or vc# - depends on what you use)
Add the following after [autoexec] and the comments in DOSbox.conf:
I'm using the old norton commander in dosbox.
I just put it in a directory in the dosbos directory.
I just made a directory in my dosbox directory called c:\nc and put it there and added nc in the path in the autoexec section of the dosbox config file:
path=c:\;c:\nc
works perfect except I used to alter the colors with ansiplus ( a replacement for ansi) to make it look better but I can't load ansiplus in dosbox.
Huh? What does that have to do with this? other than nc which is sometimes used for norton commander but this is supposed to mean ncurses if I'm not mistaken. And dosbox only uses ncurses in debug compiles.
So I don't get it
The synopsis wasn't written by myself. I found that on a site.
I thought it might clarify what can be confusing. I should have stated it was from the web. There are many versions of norton commander, some even developed for Linux in the early days of Linux.
2nd: I found out the reason of this problem. This is partly my fault. Usually I use by file manager like norton commander and when I've tried to launch an installer from the Windows explorer (not from Unreal commander, which I use) I got a successful result.
I desperately want to install Zoombinis for my daughter to play. It doesn't install on my laptop because it's 64-bit windows 8 and the game is 16-bit. So after some googling I discovered the DOSBox solution.

I was searching this thread and I noticed that one of the most important programs for Windows has never been mentioned here, even though I use it most often day by day. It is Total Commander, probably the best known and in my opinion the most powerful file manager for Windows ever.
Total Commander (TC) is a two-column file manager for Windows modelled on the legendary Norton Commander from the days of DOS.
There are also free variants for the smartphone and tablet operating systems Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone and Windows 10 Mobile. Total Commander allows convenient file management, offers an integrated ZIP utility, an FTP client, a multi-rename tool, a very good search function with filters, and so on. Its functionality can be extended easily by addons. Here is a picture of TC's main window:

And here are all 12 screenshots from TC's homepage to demonstrate different features:
Many features of Total Commander are described here:
The latest version is 10.52 from 26-10-2022 and still XP-compatible. Although it is shareware, it is fully functional. There is only a small nag screen when the program is started. Total Commander is offered in form of different installers. A 32-bit version only, a 64-bit version only and a 64-bit+32-bit combined.
The 32-bit version is compatible with Windows 95 up to Windows 11, the 64-bit version with Windows XP up to Windows 11 and the 64-bit+32-bit combined with Windows 95 up to Windows 11. There are installers for USB sticks and even a 16 bit version for Windows 3.1. Total Commander has a multiple language and Unicode support.
Total Commander is my favourite and most used program, even under Android. I use Total Commander (formerly Windows Commander) since 1995 and can recommend it without any reservations due to 28 years only positive experiences.
