Rift, a fast file manager for Windows with tabs and side-by-side panes. From this release on, Rift installs
properly and keeps itself up to date.

Download

  • Rift-win-Setup.exe: installs Rift for your user (no admin rights, no .NET needed) and adds it to the Start menu.
  • Rift-win-Portable.zip: runs from any folder, no install.

Both update themselves from now on. The exe isn't signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn on the first start:
"More info" → "Run anyway".

Coming from the 0.7 or 0.8 zip? Run the setup once; your settings, tabs and tags stay where they were.

New in 0.9

  • Installer and automatic updates (Velopack): a new version downloads in the background and installs when Rift restarts;
    an "Update to x.y.z" button in the title bar restarts right away, with your tabs back
  • Settings → Updates: the current version, "Check now", and a switch for automatic checks
  • Uninstalling through Windows Settings also removes "Open in Rift" from Explorer's menu
