We are also at a point where from the point of view of information autonomy, the difference between MacOS and Windows is negligible. We are actually at the point where the threat to your information autonomy is not so much Windows, as it is Office. The stroke of genius on the part of Apple and MS is to get this situation accepted by regulators everywhere as effective competition – the one thing that it is not – and to get the entry barriers ratified as a standard.Ĭonfronted with this, anyone with his eyes open will move his company’s and his personal data away from MS standards as fast as he reasonably can. The function of the so called ‘standard’ of OpenXML is simply to make sure anyone trying to get over this outer fence has prohibitive costs for any but the largest company, and even then, if they can afford the financial costs, probably cannot do the work in the timescales required to compete. Apple is allowed in here but no further by being given a business-disabled version of Office, and in this area we have limited and token competition for Windows. It is called OpenXML and it tries to keep out everyone except Apple, who has entered a cosy relationship with MS and is allowed to play in the area between the fences. The outer fence is very high, as you can see from the 1100 handlers. So this inner fortification runs around Windows, and while it keeps out everyone, its main purpose is to keep out Apple in particular, because Apple is the only one allowed over the outer fence. You have to have this for the business environment, and guess what, only Windows will provide the full end to end integrated experience.

This file manager software offers you an enhanced Finder capable to display two Finder windows side-by-side. But when launched it changes the current instance of Finder running in your computer memory. This file manager is installed as a standalone application. It does not modify your Finder files on the disk. Please keep in mind that the app is an add-on that gets loaded into the Finder when you launch TotalFinder app. TotalFinder File Manager for Mac works like the original Finder but adds tabs, dual-panel mode, folders on top, and other useful features. ![]()
