What’s new

New

• Amazon S3, and storage that speaks S3: Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Wasabi and MinIO.
• Vaults: an encrypted place for private files, unlocked from the sidebar.
• Archives with a password: AES-256 zip files that 7-Zip and WinRAR open on Windows.
• iCloud Photos, as folders of years, months and albums, with the original files to copy out.
• Find Files (⌥F7) searches connected servers too.
• Copy, paste and drag between your Mac, servers, archives and cloud folders.
• Get Info, checksums, Compare by Contents, Synchronize Directories, Pack, Open With and your own scripts work on files on a server or in an archive too.
• Move to Trash works in every cloud folder, and Put Back works for more of what's in the Trash.
• Names in old archives made on Windows can be read by choosing their code page.
• Every place in the sidebar can be reached from the Go menu and the keyboard.

Faster

• Opening one file from a large encrypted archive no longer unpacks the whole archive.

Quick View learns to read code and Markdown.

New

• Code is highlighted in about 25 languages, in colors for light and dark.
• Markdown shows as a formatted page: headings, tables, a table of contents, and Mermaid flowcharts and sequence diagrams.
• HTML and Markdown switch between the source and the page.
• JavaScript in an HTML preview is off unless you turn it on.

New

• Drag items within a sidebar section, the Cloud section included, to put them in your own order.
• The sidebar's cursor row uses your cursor color.

New

• Dialog windows can be moved, and open where you last left them.
• Dirnex remembers which pane was active.
• The tree view filters as you type, and ⌘V, New Folder and New File work at the cursor's folder.

Fixed

• Rename and Multi-Rename in the tree view.

New

• Tree view: show a pane's folders as a tree, with folder sizes if you like.
• Choose your own accent, cursor and mark colors.
• Row density: more rows on screen, or more room around them.
• Colors by file type, with rules you set.

Changed

• The back and forward buttons were refined.

New

• Checksums: create and verify CRC32, MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256 checksum files.
• Get Info, in full: permissions, flags, owner, group, dates, extended attributes and access lists, changed in place, for one file, many, or a whole folder. For a file you don't own, macOS asks for your password.
• Compare two files from the same pane.

Dirnex now speaks 14 languages.

New

• German, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Ukrainian, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), beside English, French, Spanish and Russian.
• Choose the compression level when packing an archive.

New

• Five script templates to start your own scripts from.
• Select and copy text in Quick View.
• In the command palette, one click runs a command, and English words find commands when Dirnex is in Russian.

New

• French and Spanish.
• ⌘X, ⌘Z and ⇧⌘Z work in text fields.

Fixed

• The focus after Invert Selection.

New

• FTP and FTPS servers. An FTPS certificate is trusted by its fingerprint, never by turning the check off.
• A clearer Connect to Server window.

Fixed

• Connecting to SMB servers. Connect to Server now lets you pick a share.
