- "Wow, I feel like an IT administrator!" you think proudly as the files disappear in a flash.
- Suddenly you realize: "Damn, I only wanted to delete old ZIP files, not EVERYTHING!" 😱
- An undo button? No way. Your files are gone forever, and you spend the rest of the evening using data recovery software.
- Lesson learned : Next time, test beforehand or at least use `-WhatIf`. 😅
2.) Scenario 2: Using the Quad File Explorer (Q-Dir) – Convenience wins
You open the Quad File Explorer , which offers you four views at once. 🖥️🖥️🖥️🖥️
- You sort the Downloads folder by file type and mark all ZIP files with the mouse - no commands, no stress.
- With a simple right-click > Delete you send the files to the trash .
- After two minutes you remember that an important ZIP file was there. No problem: you open the trash and get it back.
- Everything is done, and you leave the matter with a relaxed smile. 😌
3.) Q-Dir: What if?
- What if PowerShell was more error-friendly?
- You'd have less stress, but you'd no longer be able to show off how tech-savvy you are 😉
- Thanks to the `-WhatIf` or `-Confirm` switch, you can avoid potential errors - if you think of it!
- What if there was no Quad File Explorer?
- Your windows would be crowded, and you'd constantly be clicking through folders to compare files.
- The benefit of having four views at once would be lost, and drag-and-drop work would be much more tedious.
4.) Conclusion: PowerShell and Q-Dir in harmony
- PowerShell is unbeatable if you want to automate , but you have to be careful and precise.
- Q-Dir, on the other hand, makes manual file management a breeze - fast, secure and convenient.
- Combine both tools to get the best of both worlds: write scripts in PowerShell, verify them securely and manage files visually in Q-Dir.

Question: I often work with favorites in Q-Dir and open additional tabs. When I switch to another favorite and then return, the newly opened tabs are gone.
