Raise your hand who knew that Windows 10 has a multi clipboard (Winkey + V)
-
@Catweazle Raised my thumb
-
In an office any multi clipboard is a security breach, but not for an individual whose PC does not leave home, same as the function of multiple virtual desktops that includes Windows 10 by default at last (Linux always had this function).

Free Audio Video Pack

Microsoft itself offers an excellent substitute/add-on for Task Manager, with many more functionalities that allows you to drill down into all processs, Systeminternals Process Explorer
Although the program offers to replace the Task Manager, it is better to use it only as a companion app, because uses an API to read the process path here, which should not be used on current systems, with results not very reliable in some processes. It's the only negative point. -

Another, rather curious, file explorer is Eagle Mode.
Eagle Mode is a zoomable user interface (ZUI) with file manager, file viewers, games, and more.
This project is about a futuristic style of human-computer interaction, where the user can visit almost everything simply by zooming in. It features a portable C++ programming interface for developing such ZUIs, and it features the Eagle Mode application, which provides a virtual cosmos with plugin applications.The most important one is the professional file manager with its rich, scriptable command set. It integrates file viewers for most of the common file types, as well as an audio/video player. Furthermore, the virtual cosmos contains a chess game, a netwalk game, a 3D mines game, a multi-function clock, some fractals, and a Linux kernel configurator in form of a kernel patch.
An autoplay function allows to show or play things one ofter the other (e.g. slideshow of picture files or document pages, playing of multiple audio or video files).
The core of Eagle Mode supports fast anti-aliased graphics, virtually unlimited depth of zooming, extensive mouse and keyboard control, animated navigation with kinetic effects (inertia, friction, and magnetism), popup-zoomed control views, editable bookmarks, in-place help texts, and working with multiple windows.
Eagle Mode is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 3.

System D (not confuse with systemd) is a great online collaboration Tool (FOSS, AGPL-3.0 license -still in developement but works fine). 100% private, collaborators are added by invitation link by the main user.
OUR PURPOSE :
Develop a tool to support the transition to a production model based on the free exchange, the sharing and the collaboration between humans.
(I imagine this added as a feature in Vivaldi for a premium enterprise version https://github.com/HUB-HUmanBeing/SystemD)
