About the new permission "SuperUser":
This permission is now requested to make Total Commander work better on rooted devices. It tells the SuperUser app that Total Commander supports root functions. It has no effect if your device is not rooted. Root functions allow Total Commander to write to system folders like /system or /data. You will be warned before anything is written if the partition is write protected.

I've been using this app for years. There is a lot of file management apps out there. I can't say this one is better than that one I have tried other apps and I always come back to Total Commander. I also use it on my PC. There is only one function I can't do. I can't Format micro SD cards. If this function is not part of TC it would be nice to have a format function added to TC in the future. Great App!

I've been using TC for years. Great app. PLEASE remove the "continue playing where I left off" feature for audio playback. It's extremely annoying. Once a music playlist has been closed and TC terminated, there is no reason for TC to remember where every track stopped playing the last time it played. Because of this, the playback of large playlists causes a lot of skipping, ruining the listening experience. PLEASE FIX IT! I would reinstall TC 2.72 but I'd wipe out all customized settings!

Been using this for quite a while with good success and satisfaction. Recently however the media player seems to be acting up. I use "Play Background" to play a folder of mp3 files and recently the player won't start unless I go into the speedup controls and change the speed around. The player also sometimes jumps from one mp3 file to the next even though the original file hasn't finished playing. I am running Android 6. I suspect this bug crept into Version 3.10 when the option to change playback speed was introduced. Hope you can get this fixed, I want to stick with this app. 1/6/21 Update: The problem persists and seems to be related to the graphic equalizer, balance control, and playback speed control. Increasing the playback speed seems to get the playback queue working again, but then the balance control skews far towards one channel. If I manually set the balance back to the middle, and then change the playback speed again, the balance setting go way off balance again. Also, turning the equalizer on or off seems to stabilize things, but the settings are forgotten and/or seem to change by themselves. I am running Android 6, maybe you are not supporting that anymore or some of your newer features are not backward compatible.
