Java tends to be slow and inefficient.tip: By default, Nautilus use/show the path bar, using Ubuntu Tweak you can set it by default to use the address bar. Cntrl-L is the typical way to make the path editable by keyboard.[[Image:20star.png]] == PCManFM ==== [[PCManFM]] ==[[Image:40star.png]] [[Image:30star.png]] Linux Mint with the Cinnamon desktop includes Nemo File Manager by default.

It lacks too many features that prevents it from being a total replacement. Although you can add tools manually the process is tedious, which is not practical for someone without significant free time. It uses a stupid 3d blue box icon that one can not glance at and quickly identify it is a file operation, an icon should be a symbolic representation of the purpose.[[Image:40star.png]] review: <s>Loads fast</s>. Nice interface (very functional with the best layout observed over other file managers.) <s>Stable, doesn't seem to crash</s>. Ability to use keyboard and edit path bar: has both breadcrumbs and path entry visible simultaneously! Somewhat cumbersome file association for "open with" handling, although functional it requires manual entry of path to program binary for each association. For example, when I go to open a PDF rather than selecting "Document Viewer" from a list I manually enter the path "/usr/bin/xreader" which for some may be more difficult. Uses internal viewers for certain file types which are limited in functionality, such as the internal image viewer. Updated: At first it loaded fast and was stable. However, after a few weeks of use it became less stable. Launching Xfe requires patience as there is considerable delay between launching and the interface appearing. Due to these problems developing after a few weeks of use, the review is revised and rating is adjusted. These problems observed on Mint / Cinnamon.
