For a lifetime license incl updates forever that seems quite reasonable to me. It's a bit over a year of Netflix.
In fact, given that it includes perpetual priority support (within a business day!) I expect the author's gonna change that soon, once he gets one of those infinitely demanding customers and realizes what a terrible mistake he made (inf support for a one-time payment, oops!). So better bite while it's hot!
The €40 option for one year of updates is a lot more economical and is still a perpetual license for the software itself.
Imagine paying for a file browser. This is why windows will always win. They have the most docile userbase ever. They'd rather pay 250 bucks for a file picker than to change OS.
If you use software that is $10k/year and Windows only, a few bucks here and there to improve your quality of life is a rounding error
My solution to the nag screen was that I never turned off my computer, just put it to sleep, so Total Commander was always running.
Interestingly, TC was one of the few software that I considered paying for, but in the end I didn't because they asked for too much information at the time. Not long later I switched to Linux, and I couldn't use TC there.
some folks about to make a decent amount of money if the trend wrt win11 continues
> $250 for a version with updates past a year? yikes It cannot handle CJK encodings too. what a joke
I've tried this a few times. Windows 10. Downloaded the 2MB file, double-clicked on it, and nothing happens. Same thing when I tried it a few months again. Put it in a command prompt and no output of an error.
I'm starting to worry I just launched something malicious.
The latter is normal on windows. Executables have a header flag which specifies they either use the terminal or not. If a terminal program is opened from outside a terminal, it opens a terminal window. If a nonterminal program is opened from a terminal, it instantly detaches.
After downloading, did you open its properties and "unblock" it?
$250 for a version with updates past a year? yikes
