 This is a file manager, yes, another one. Strictly, it's not free - it's 'nagware' but you can use it indefinitely if you put up with the nags. It's merits are ... it's very good for keyboard (as opposed to mouse) working; it has a very good folder synchronisation facility; and it can be installed on a SB stick.
+The main TotalCommander page is at http://www.ghisler.com/ and the USB instructions are at http://www.ghisler.com/usbinst.htm
+First, install the TotalCommanderLauncherPortable program.
+Then install TotalCommander into the empty PortableApps/TotalCommanderLauncherPortable/App/TotalCommander folder.
+Finally, copy the contents of the totalcmd folder up into the TotalCommander folder and delete the now empty totalcmd folder.
+Yes, it's not exactly a smooth installer, maybe that's why TC is mostly used by geeks ...
+==== MailStore Home ====
+Make sure you get the Home version - http://www.mailstore.com/en/mailstore-home.aspx - and not the trial of the full version.
+Just run it, you will get options for normal or partable installation. Thee latter will show all your drives and also 'Other', using this you can install it into PortableApps\MailStoreHome (you will have to create the folder) and then run it from your PortableApps launcher.
