How about it? What DOS utils you use and cannot live without? 😁

for me:

1. Necromancer's DOS NAVIGATOR

http://ndn.muxe.com : based on the awesome DOS Navigator by RitLabs, this one is pimped and has more functions ! (even mouse scroll wheel works in it! 🤣 )

2. an old small program, called LIST.com , that does quickly file operations http://www.buerg.com

3. CTMOUSE, SHUCDX , just precious 😊

4. Norton Diskedit, nice to see/edit files

sooo.... post yours! 😉

Xtgold 3.0 Dos GUI utility. Made file management and editing so much easier!

DosStart 1.9b. I wish it supported more colours, though.

file wizard is nice, too bad it does not fully support FAT32...
