Bottom Line Path Finder for Mac targets people who are not afraid to experiment in order to streamline their workflows.
No tags support: The app still deals with Labels and has not yet adopted Mavericks' tagging system.
If disabled by accident, it may pose a serious usability issue. Ability to read, analyze, and edit files: In addition to the features you would expect a file explorer to have, Path Finder for Mac also comes with a text editor, a terminal utility, an archival tool, and a comparison tool, all of which work well and are fairly easy to use.Ĭons Potentially dangerous: The software deals with vital OS features and exposes you to options like hiding the Finder app and the Trashcan. With such a powerful option, dragging and dropping becomes a snap. Side-by-side view: You can view two different folders at the same time in the same window. There are even optional sliding panes on each side of the window that allow access to recent documents, folders, and apps. Pros Powerful main screen: Path Finder for Mac's main screen packs a lot of features, including an integrated info pane and handy shortcuts to places on the Mac and the network.
There are also command line and compression utilities, a text editor, and many hooks into other products like Google, TeamViewer, and the Mail app. Based on OS X's Finder app, Path Finder for Mac brings the same functionality as well as a ton of other handy features that are not limited to file management.
