Which program you use to manage files under MS-DOS and why?

[abandonware]

I always use Norton Commander, because the double navigation panel, greatly simplified me the copying of files, even between two PCs with the option to transfer files via the parallel or serial port.

[Windows 386]

I am using the Volkov Commander, because it is fast und it does support Long File Names with DOSLFN under MS-DOS 7.x and 8.0.
In addition it is a small DOS application, which is programmed in assembly.

[Wheatley]

Nothing, because there is no point in using one.

[MegaDragon998]

I never tried any manager

[CaptainPeanut]

I haven't used one.

[AlphaBeta]

MS-DOS Shell. I primarly use built-in tools if available.

[os2fan2]

I use NC. It supports LFN under windoze 98 etc. It's most like file commander/2 and its windoze clone.

[DeFacto]

I rarely manage files in DOS, but when I do, I use DOSShell, along with a mouse driver. Simple, yet effective.

dir /w
copy
xcopy
rd
del

Mostly freecom now had used GEM and PC tools and Norton and GEOS.

[WinPC]

To manage files under MS-DOS: Windows 3.1x!

Even though Windows 3.x is actually an operating system, since it runs alongside MS-DOS, I prefer that to using MS-DOS itself for file management, especially when Windows 3.x offers File Manager, Notepad, and Write, as well as for multitasking between applications.

[Kelton2]

I also use Windows 3.x for this, for the same reasons you mentioned.

[Ciastex]

Norton Commander. I used it under DOS because I used Midnight Commander under Linux and it worked quite well.

[Asuyuka]

Norton Commander, because its what we used when DOS was still new, too.

[MSUser2013]

I use MS-DOS Shell, One of the reasons is because it came with MS-DOS, But if i wanted to use MS-DOS 6.2 i could install the MS-DOS shell from the Supplemental Disk

[Chorg]

I use Norton Commander, because it is fast and handy even without using a mouse.

[George_528]

I use Norton Commander too, because it's very good.

[qazmko1029]

I hardly ever use any manager,but sometimes I use DOSShell..

[Boris]

I wasn't even aware people are still using MS-DOS...

[silvohex]

I personally prefer using the bare MS-DOS shell. It gives me that wonderful feeling of, I don't know how to call it, "vanilla nostalgia".

[wjack12]

I prefer Graphic Vision because of the Windows 95 style buttons and the Windows 3.1-like window manager.
