Sometimes when looking through a file manager, it would be nice to have more than a dual-pane view. Now you can manage your files with up to four viewing panes at once with Q-Dir.

Note: Q-Dir is available in regular install and portable versions.


Installation

The install process is extremely quick and easy with Q-Dir…there are only two windows to go through. The first window lets you choose the language version that you prefer by clicking on the appropriate flag symbol and has the EULA for Q-Dir.

The second window asks if you would like to install for all users or just for the current account, the Program Group that you would like Q-Dir in, after-installation preferences, shortcut preferences, desired Target Directory, and an option to create a portable install

What Q-Dir Looks Like

Once you have finished installing Q-Dir and started it for the first time, it will open with all four viewing panes active. You can definitely get some file access going here!
