Installation and deinstallation


Installation

FileCommander 5 does not need any installation. You can copy the FileCommander.exe in any directory.
FileCommander will not change any system file or create any registry entry (please look in the Setup FileCommander for details).

There are several sub folders, which can be copied, if you want:

  • .\Config:
    Every configuration of FileCommander will be saved in this folder. You do not have to create this folder manually.
    If you use FileCommander on any other machine, it is advised to delete the tools.tsav. FileCommander will create a tool list at the first start-up automatically.
  • .\Languages:
    This folder contains every language file of FileCommander. If you copy this folder to the FileCommander folder, you can choose between these languages in the Configuration menu. If you do not copy this folder, FileCommander will be in English
  • .\Logs:
    The log file of FileCommander is stored here. This folder will be created automatically. You do not have to copy it manually
  • .\Plugins:
    This folder contains the plug-ins for FileCommander. Without this folder, some functions might not be available (e.g. browsing in RAR-files).
    You can browse in ZIP-files without any plug-in. This feature is included in FileCommander without the need of any plug-in
  • .\Help:
    This folder contains the help file of FileCommander. If you do not copy this folder, the help file will not be available.


Deinstallation

You can remove FileCommander from your system by deleting the FileCommander folder.
Attention! Some configurations do create registry entries (e.g. Start FileCommander with Windows)! If you want to be sure, that every link to FileCommander in your system will be removed, please use the included uninstaller.
