Bruce I would like to know how well Directory Opus interacts with my file management of Macintosh HFS+ disks. Currently, I have MacDrive 8 running in the background of Win XP Pro, and use a file manager in Windows to move/delete/whatever for my file management on the Mac disks. I use both Windows Explorer and recently have been trying same using Xplorer2Pro. It has seemed to me that doing such file maintenance via Windows Explorer will sometimes cause my Windows system to bog or stall or Explorer crashes, or even sometimes asks for a restart. Xplorer2Pro seems good so far, but have only just been trying it out for such tasks.

Will Directory Opus Light be able to interact well with both MacDrive and the Mac disks so that I can do file maintenance 'robustly' - without fear of bogdown, freezing or crash/restarts? (Hope my question is clear. I will say, the too-frequent Win Explorer bogdown and crashes are a real chore, thus I hope to find a good alternative for my file management of my multiple Mac disks.) Thanks. GP Software Hi everyone! Thanks to everyone for your interest in Directory Opus Light. We're certainly excited to be launching this new product through BitsDuJour! To answer your initial questions: @MountainKing: A description of the differences between the versions can be found at (as you've already discovered).

@gin graham: You will be able to upgrade to Pro at any time for the difference in price (regular price, not discounted price). So for a single install licence (plus free laptop licence) the upgrade fee would be $40 AUD. @Joe McCormick: The download file is the same for both Pro and Light.

@Bruce: No idea! Download a trial and see for yourself:) @Doc Daddy: In conjunction with the release of the Light edition we have also reduced the pricing of the Pro edition, for example a single install licence (plus free laptop licence) is now $69 AUD, and upgrade from 9-10 is now $49 AUD. PortablesFan The comparison chart says both versions have the 'Option for portable USB version,' but in your forums it looks like this costs extra?

If so, how much? Does the Light version include the 'dongle' USB option? Says: 'Single or dual licences are available at discounted rates to bone fide teachers or students on proof of eligibility such as teacher or student registration or email address at a.edu domain.' How would this compare to today's BdJ deal? BTW, website typo: should be 'bona fide' - ironic placement on the academic page;-) Thanks! Stuart Krivis It doesn't replace explorer.exe, it simply opens things in DOpus instead.

You can always rt-click on things and open them with explorer instead if you wish to. I don't think I've ever actually elected to use explorer.exe instead of DOpus, but the capability is there.

BTW, explorer.exe still runs even when you're using DOpus, because explorer also provides the desktop, taskbar, tray, etc. I've used DOpus on several computers over the years, running several different version of Windows, and I've never had a 'bad experience' with it. Kelly Major DO is on my must have list. It is an absolutely fantastic product. The power and flexibility is astonishing!

While I would like to see DO change to a licensing model that is more user-centric in this age where everyone has multiple computers and VMs I have to say I tolerate the licensing model for this product for the reasons stated in paragraph 1. These days if a product doesn't offer a user license I seek alternatives if at all possible since as a developer I have quite a few machines and even more VMs.

I'm not sure about this so you should do your own research but I thought I read when PRO was offered that a computer license included the host OS and any VMs running on the same computer. In other words the license is truly PER COMPUTER.

I didn't look into it since I have a 5-Pack for my own use and that covers my needs. Here is a nice link that I share with anyone new to DO: I have no experience with DO Light but DO 'Full' is worth every penny. Bruce To Silat, I agree that the pricing has been what has put me off of the product. On my limited income budget I could never justify the cost of DOpus. The new for 2012 Light version seems like it might be about right. The only missing features I would wish, from their lists is: - Allow it to be install to both my main PC and my backup PC - which I never use at the same time since I only have one set of hands!

- Allowing Flat view and the UAC mode to be in the Light feature set. So, to GP Software folks, please consider these requests for future policy -- and if you all decide to implement these, please allow to be added to those who buy today.

P.S., is the USB usage add-on function also discounted today? Rich OBrien It appears that all the upgrade improvements from Opus 9 were put into the Pro version of Directory Opus 10. Here is an opportunity for everyone who has Directory Opus 9 Pro who can't afford the upgrade to Pro 10 to instead pay $15.32 for a renamed and stripped down version of the Directory Opus Pro 9 program they already own. I use Directory Opus 9 Pro for exactly one purpose and that is to copy folders from one drive to another while retaining all the original dates on folders and files.

The other features in Directory Opus 9 are so overly complex that I'm lost and can't appreciate them even though I have more than 25 years of computing experience. J S Hmmm well anything has to be better than Micro$ofts' explorer which hasn't been good since the days on Windows v3.11 RICH OBrien You could take a look at TeraCopy by CodeSector.com (who promote thru Bitsdujour.com) which does exactly the thing you talk of and does it very well making certain that the CRC of each file or folder is copied bit perfectly AND the program is cheap by comparison to D.O. & FREE LiFETiME UPGRADES/UPDATES.

DANNY THYS yes it would be nice if D.O. Offered the option to purchase a Lifetime License - which included free major upgrades, just like OuterTech.com and ArtenScience.com to name but 2 of a growing number of other vendors that promote their software through Bitsdujour and perhaps I'll write to them about the benefits (to both GP Software & their customer) of offering such an option. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - And now light-heartedly: As for the quote at the top of the description referring to D.O. V9.5 Ah these people who want to be OZzies should have said '. Mad as a cut snake.'

Specially pommie b*stards who envy the hell out of Australia and Australians - in general. Bruce That last comment (from Rich) about file dates got me worried, as I need accurate file dates. So I conducted some tests on the DOpus 10 Light version. Results look good, that is, the dates seem to be Preserved, at least in my testing. Details: Drag copy a folder with files from NTFS internal to external NTFS drive. From Windows Explorer to Windows Explorer -- Folder create and mod dates set to now = bad. File create dates set to now, mod dates are preserved = mixed.

(thus the file is now modified before it is created:P ) From DOpus Lt to DOpus Lt -- Folder create and mod dates are preserved = Good! File create and mod dates are preserved = good! From DOpus Lt to Windows Explorer -- (acts just as the Win to Win copy) Folder create and mod dates set to now = bad. File create dates set to now, mod dates are preserved = mixed. From Windows Explorer to DOpus Lt -- Folder create and mod dates are preserved = good! File create and mod dates are preserved = good!

Thus it seems that the receiving app determines how dates are set. So as long as Directory Opus Light is the receiving folder (or, more correctly, the receiving folder is being viewed and targeted inside Directory Opus Light application) then the dates are preserved. This is, I think, very good file manager behavior for file and folder date management.

And for me, an essential function of a file manager, as I do a lot of file maintenance, and the file and folder create and mod dates are very important to be accurate. So, you have a new buyer now, me.;). Amit @GP Software 1) Whats the meaning of that if we buy more than 1 usb portable extension - to DO license (single license bought) - does it mean that if we buy 2 usb licenses then we can use DO light (or pro even maybe later) on 2 different usb sticks - all with the purchase of 1 single main license? Because there was option to buy multiple usb licenses with 1 single main license too?

So wasn't clear. 2) As you said above - so this light version can be used on multiple vms running on the same computer? '@Kelly Major: Yes you're right, you don't need a licence for VMs, just the underlying physical computer.'

3) And can 1 license it be used to run on 2 or 3 different OS too on the same computer - like in a scenario of dual boot? If used non simultaneosly? Garrett Goyette Yet another great windows explorer replacement being offered on BDJ.

Just wish it were the pro so i can compare directly with xyplorer, x2plorer (which i grabbed out here and use everyday. Just downloaded a copy of Fileboss as well.

I just think directory opus is a bit stripped down upon opening, so one has to customize immediately to their liking but there are very good instructions for doing so. I know that people have been raving about DO for years but ithe other 3 i mentioned are so feature rich, i will have to see how things are implemented. I am sure i only understand and use only about 10% of all the POWER features, but i have loved file manager type replacements since i first bought Xtree Gold for dos. There are invaluable. IMy first windows pwer file manager was Powerdesk, but immediately after loading on 3 different computer, i always get a dll error upon right clicking. Ulitmately the context menu will work afrter canceling the error message twice but, waiting 10 to 30 seconds each time i right click forced me to remove and the problem went away and then returned upon reopening so i stopped using Power desk.

I love both XY and X2 buty some thing s are just more inutiive to find or do in each of them. I am intrigued by Fileboss as well now since it gives you the Tree in both Panes.

Looking forward to kicking the tires though i admint that in the new dawn of Apps fro 99 cents that spendign $90 dollars on a file manager (that is as much as the operating system in some cases is a bit over priced) but i am happy to pick up light version for $15. I will come back at a future date after i check it out. Rich OBrien JS Thanks for telling me of Tera Copy. Before I found Directory Opus, I could find no program that retained the dates on folders. Even a program called Folder Clone changed all folder dates to today's date.

I asked the programmer of AccelMan at Flexigen Software for a date retention feature and in just two weeks he added the feature to AccelMan. Sadly, he found other ways to make a better living and AccelMan became Orphanware.

Amazingly, AccelMan as freeware, unsupported and unimproved since 2006 still receives great reviews and is highly rated. Garrett Goyette @JS, good thing to know about Teracopy. Unfortunately, Teracopyis no where as fast at copying as it claims. It even loses in speed tests to explorer. I just copied some files using DO lite and the average speed was 15 mbs per second. Perhaps we can just p[ut it on the wish list for the developer.

I too as deeply disturbed that all the file dates get changed upon moves and copies in most of these explorer replacements. Afterall, Date Created is the date software SHOULD BE JUST THATt. Garrett Goyette # THUMBS UP FOR ONE FEATURE ALONE alone that justified the purchase. I just copied about 6 gbs of 30,000 + files into a directory that already had some copies of these files. RIGHT UP FRONT DO 10 had a check box for UNATTENDED TRANSFER. I clicked that and it gave me half a dozen options like replace if source file was newer than Target file,,,, etc. My other File managers ask that kind of stuff near the end of a copy or move or ask repeatedly.

This way, i can do a large transfer or copy and GO TO BED and know that my files will copy with out my watchful eye. What a TIMEsaver!
