Total Commander 6.53 32 bit for Windows 95/98/ME and Windows NT 3.51/4.0/2000/XP
This version does not work with Windows 3.1 -> get 16 bit on www.ghisler.com
To install Total Commander, just run install.exe
If you have installed a previous version of Total Commander or Wincmd (old name),
you can install the new version to the same directory without removing the
previous version. You can remove an old wincmd version AFTERWARDS with tcuninst.exe.
What is Total Commander?
Total Commander (former Wincmd) is a file manager for Windows, a tool like the
Explorer or file manager, which comes with windows. But Total Commander uses a
different approach: it has two fixed windows, which makes copying files much
easier. Total Commander exists in two versions, 16 and 32 bit. While the 16-bit
version runs fine also in 32-bit Windows, the 32-bit version cannot be used in
Windows 3.1.
Total Commander is shareware. The shareware version is freely distributable,
as long as it is unchanged!
Here some key features of Total Commander:
- Long filename support in Windows 95/98/ME and Windows NT/2000/XP (16 and 32 bit version)
- FTP client to transfer files over the Internet

Removing Total Commander: Double click tcuninst.exe !
Installation BY HAND: Just copy the files to a directory on your hard disk.
Unpack the file install.cab with a cab unpacker (like CABVIEW from Microsoft)
to an empty dir, like c:\totalcmd . Then move all files with the extension
.pif into the Windows directory. They let external packers run in a DOS window
instead of full screen. Files in subdir e\ need to be moved to the dir where
totalcmd.exe is.
Removal by hand:If you remove the program (totalcmd dir), also delete the files
wincmd.ini, wcx_ftp.ini and noclose.pif in your Windows directory!
