Mac OS X systems have a Java runtime pre-installed, but Windows 7 systems do not. To run muCommander you need to have a Java runtime environment installed on your system. It's free/libre open source software ( FLOSS) and it's free/gratis. MuCommander 0.8.5 was released on 2010 February 24. You can do lots more with muCommander, including run it on any platform that supports Java and access & manage files on servers running SMB, NFS, HTTP, Bonjour, and - starting with version 0.8.5 - Amazon S3 & Hadoop HDFS. checking the MD5 (or other) checksum of a file.editing files with my favorite editor, vim (but you can use any editor you like).copying files between directories on a single machine.copying files between two of my local machines.

copying files between a local machine and an SFTP server.My most common tasks with muCommander are:

What I mainly like is that it has side-by-side panes that each display a view of a directory and you can easily copy or move files between these two directories. I like that it's cross-platform so my brain doesn't need to switch gears when I switch machines. I use muCommander on my Mac and Windows machines to manage local and remote files.
