Please consider checking out my books, follow me on Twitter, FB, or tell others who might enjoy reading my work about my books. BUT, if you found this article useful, you can return the favor and help me out. ** I don’t get a commission on either app, so my views are entirely my own. The developer is such a first class act that he made a list of other apps that might work as a replacement. If you’re one of those who isn’t planning on upgrading to El Capitan anytime soon, I can’t recommend TotalFinder enough. That’s it! Now, whenever you use that shortcut, PathFinder will launch. Keep playing around with this until you find one that works. NOTE: if the newly created shortcut doesn’t work, chances it’s used elsewhere. Highlight the service and click to the right, which will allow you to enter a keyboard shortcut.Your workflow should now look something like this:ħ. Select Save from the File Menu and give the service a name (mine is PathFinder Launch) Drag the workflow icon to the workflow area. Seach for the word Launch in the search field.ĥ.

One of the things I missed the most was the ability to launch and hide Finder with a quick keyboard shortcut.īeing the eternal geek, I sought out a solution. Sure, I can go through a few settings and hide Finder, but it has other implications, mainly how I see icons on my desktop, but I digress. I’m still getting used to having another app in my dock. ![]() I’m really digging PathFinder’s shelves, too. Tab set profiles? Yes, please! I also have a set way I like certain folder structures presented. I’m mad for tabs as shortcuts to my files. I will say that I needed dual browser windows, a quick method of moving and copying files, the ability to rename easily, and tabs. I won’t go into all the wonderful things PathFinder can do, because if you do a Google search you’ll find loads of great blog posts and videos on the app that go into far more detail. After watching a few videos, I think I’ll find that PathFinder is one of those can’t-live-without apps. Where TotalFinder was easy and simple, PathFinder takes a little getting used to because it is super rich in features. That said, I did some homework and chose CocoaTech’s PathFinder. I could make do with Apple’s own Finder, but I find it lacks some functionality I need. True, I could bypass System Integrity, but I chose not to. Parts of the app will run while others won’t. Why? El Capitan’s System Integrity Protection feature prevents TotalFinder from augmenting Finder. ![]() So ’tis a sad, sad day when I have to say goodbye to one of the most useful apps I’ve ever used. If I had to choose only a handful of apps to use on my Mac, TotalFinder would be on that list. For years, I’ve been a huge fan of TotalFinder, a Finder enhancement application. ![]()
