You will need a couple of plug-ins in order to view and download the files using Total Commander.

• CanonCam: allows you to download/delete the JPG and CRW files: http://www.ghisler.com/plugins.htm

• Imagine: used to display image files (CRW not supported): http://www.ghisler.com/plugins.htm

Install the plug-ins and open their readme files to learn how to work with them.

The standard version of Total Commander does not provide cloud support. However, there is a plugin designed by Total Commander's developers which will give you integrated access to the following cloud services:

• Box
• Dropbox
• Google Drive
• Windows Live SkyDrive
• Yandex Drive

The functions available with this plugin are :

• Upload
• Download
• Rename
• Delete
• New folder
• Detailed properties

You can download the Cloud plugin from the official plugins download webpage or by clicking the link below:

Total Commander can be used to compare both files and folders. For directories, you should use the function synchronize dirs:

• Select the folders which you want to compare.
• Choose commands - synchronize dirs.
• Choose the options Subdirs, by content and ignore date.
• Click compare.
• Click the = (equals) button to hide/show equal files.

Total Commander has a built-in bookmark-like feature called Directory Hotlist (shortcut Ctrl-D) which will give quick access to you favorite files and directories. You can use it for both files and folders as it follows:

For folders:

• Use the Directory Hotlist (Ctrl-D) to add the current folder to the directory hotlist and then select Add current dir

For files:

• Use the Directory Hotlist (Ctrl-D) to add the current folder to the directory hotlist.

• Select Add current dir. Next press Ctrl-D again. Select Configure.

• In the list of saved folder names, select the folder name which you have just added and append \name of the file to the folder name. Select OK.

You can jump to the saved filenames / foldernames by pressing Ctrl-D and selecting the appropriate entry from the Directory Hotlist

Please open Total Commander and press CTRL+F. A new window will appear from where you need to click on New Connection. Please fill the form with your details about: server IP, username, password, remote directory, SSL support, etc. After you've filled the form, click Connect and the application will start the FTP connection procedure and if all the details were correctly entered, you will then be connected to your own FTP server.

Files can be compared in Total Commander by following a sequence of steps :

1. Select the two files, from different windows or from the same window
2. From the top menu select Files - Compare by content
3. The differences between the files should be shown in blue (text files) or red (binaries)

Also, if your version of Total Commander is above version 7, you can use the CompareIt tool, which Total Commander will use instead of its internal tool. It will give you several main advantages:

• CompareIt is accessed from the internal Folders comparison tool (useful if you are not using Synchronize It plug-in)
• You can quickly compare 2 files, selected in same pane
• CompareIt plug-in can be used to compare files within archives

If you don't have it and you find it useful, you can get this tool by clicking on the following: http://www.grigsoft.com/wincmp-setup.exe

The main function of the command line in Total Commander is to start the programs with parameters. For this to happen you should type the program's name or to press CTRL+ENTER or CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.
Also, if the version of Total Commander is above 7.5, you can start Lister, Compare by content or synchronize directories directly via command line parameters.

There is a plugin/tool for Total Commander which will give you the possibility to bookmark files and folders. It is called TwinKey and you can download it and test it by accessing the link below:
