Clover: A Chrome-style Windows Explorer tabs plug-in

[Kaido]

I'd suggest a reboot after installing so that it can take over all of your Explorer windows:

1. Free
2. Multiple tabs in one window (like Chrome)
3. Ability to add bookmarks (like Chrome) of folders
4. Launches with Explorer (ex. Windows key + E)

Keyboard shortcuts: (when Clover is in focus)

"CTRL + T" = open new tab
"CTRL + W" = close current tab
"CTRL + Tab" = cycle through tabs left to right
"CTRL + D" = bookmark current folder path (you can also drag a folder to the bookmarks bar)
"CTRL + N" = new Clover-Explorer Window

Pretty neat idea actually. Once you have more than 2 -3 explorer windows open, keeping track of them all becomes quite hard, especially if you want to drag and drop between them so you have to maneuver them so they don't overlap.
Who are this company and can they be trusted, though?

fwiw, they were certified as crapware-free by Softpedia.

Been using it for a few days now, I like it. Has crashed once or twice, but so far I like it more than the other Explorer replacements I've used...tabs are nice!

That's pretty nice.

One thing I don't like, though, is clicking the Explorer icon on the taskbar opens a new tab in an existing Explorer window rather than a new instance of Explorer, which is how any other program behaves. Not hard to work around (may take some getting used to), but inconsistent.
