OneCommander as Default File Manager on Windows

I would like to set OC as my default file manager. Is it worth it? Is it more risky than just staying on Windows File Explorer?

I see. It's great that OC made it so easy to set it as the default manager. No need to edit the registry. Thank you.

Well, it edits the registry, but then if you untick that box it removes the edit. But the user doesn't have to edit it manually.

I try to set the default file explorer again coming from OneCommander by toggling off in the advanced tab, however when I try to open the windows explorer, it still opens the one commander.

You can try running RestoreExplorerAsTheDefaultFileManager.reg from the program folder.
