How it plays
How does Volkov Commander play?
The screen is divided into two directory panels. The active panel displays files and folders, while the other panel serves as the destination for file operations.
Players navigate with the keyboard, open directories, select files, and perform copy, move, rename, creation, and deletion tasks through function-key commands. The program can also launch executable files and switch drives, making it useful for routine DOS administration.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Volkov Commander?
Keep the source and destination panels on the directories you use most often. This reduces repeated navigation during batches of copy or move operations.
Review selected files before destructive commands, and use descriptive directory names so the compact panel display remains easy to scan.
Before you begin
What should you know before playing?
- 1
Use Tab to move quickly between the two panels.
- 2
Check the destination panel before copying or moving files.
- 3
Treat delete commands carefully because DOS file managers may not provide a modern recycle bin.
Editorial context
What do players highlight?
