40 € includes one year of updates, if you want lifetime updates, you have to pay 200 €.
Good old Total Commander, the all-time classic alternative file manager for Windows, costs 42 € + VAT with lifetime updates (https://www.ghisler.com/order.htm). But yeah, I have to admit that the application looks as dated as the website...
40 bucks feels alright but 200 (five times as much !) feels excessive. How much priority support does one need for a file explorer?
Also yes 200 gives you free upgrades but you have to assume there'll be many years of development and many upgrades to recoup the cost vs buying the regular license.
I'm a long time Directory Opus (dopus) user which costs around 50 US$. Dopus is more extendible but probably not as fast. Seems like a reasonable price to me. When you deal with a LOT of files like I do as a game dev it pays for itself pretty quickly.
It's a one-time purchase of 40 bucks. 200 for priority support. It's not peanuts for many people but far from overpriced IMHO.

I like dated. I used it since it was called Windows Commander, on Win311.
Unfortunately Total Commander is starting to become bloated too. The file copy/move window, the one with the progress bars, looks horrible in v11.

I don't even dislike default file explorers that much and will buy this (whenever they release Mac one).
I like to buy good software.
