TotalCommander is a Shareware file manager.
TotalCommander 8.00
<package

The new version 8 is the first 64bit-version of Total Commander. Because not all plugins are already compatible with the 64-bit Version, there is still a 32bit-Version available. It is recommended to use the installer with both versions and install them into %ProgramFiles(x86)%.
TotalCommander 7.56a

Preparation
The provided installer is not able to perform a silent install. However, it is possible to unpack the installer, make changes that are enable it to install silently, and repack it. Because the installer is digitally signed, you need a special version of sfxhead.sfx to repack it.
- Install TotalCommander locally
- Get the installer SFX EXE: http://ghisler.fileburst.com/addons/sfxhead_installer.zip
- Unpack new sfxhead.sfx file to the TotalCommander directory (rename the existing sfxhead.sfx to sfxhead.sfx.org)
- Download the installer tcmd756a.exe
- Unpack the installer to a new directory (press STRG+Page Down)
- Modify install.inf and add your files (i.e. wincmd.key for license and windcmd.ini for more settings). See the TotalCommander Wiki and Forum
- Create a new zip file with the option "self extracting archive", name it i.e. tcmdr7546a_auto.exe
- Rename the old sfxhead.sfx
install.inf
Edit the provided install.inf as you need it. The following is only an example of the lines that have been changed, do not use it as your actual install.inf!

wincmd.ini
If you want to have only one setting for any resolution you encounter, you can configure TC that way. You have to open your wincmd.ini, add "ResolutionSpecific=0" to its "[Configuration]" section and rename one your resolution settings (something like "[1366x768 (8x16)]") to "[AllResolutions]". After next start of TC, only that section will be used for such settings.
Instead of providing a wincmd.ini with the installer it is also possible to add settings to the [ini] section of install.inf.
