Total Commander (ghisler.com) Although you'll have to cheat a little to
add different colors to your folders.

Stable. Flexible. Powerful.
Free updates _forever_. I've used it for 10 years and a half-dozen
major updates. Near instant support from the TC community
(http://ghisler.ch/board/) and the actual guy who writes the code drops
in a couple of times a week.

Yeah. We're all that enthusiastic.

I forgot to mention that you can download a 100% functional version to
use as long as you want, with a splash entry screen.

Standard configuration operates like the old Norton Commander but you
can customize it easily to work with Windows compliant keys/mouse actions.
