One of the things that I like about WINFILE is the ability to see the whole tree
and see the files in the other half of the window. Clicking on a directory
in the tree updates the files section with the appropriate information. 

Other than that, it seems like a nice tool (I've only used it once - last night - 
so my experience is limited).
