announced the release of Path Finder 4.5, an enhanced version of
their award-winning file browser. Path Finder 4.5 features a number

Undo Support – Move, copy, and send to trash operations are now
easily undone via a menu item or keystroke.

of the file operations that can be performed in superuser mode.

Multiple Shelves – Path Finder 4.5 reintroduces the ability to
