probably a long shot but are there any lightweight alternatives to windows file explorer for 2024?

i'm stuck on windows for now until the time comes to grab a new laptop. so sick of the default one in windows 11 though.

Why are you stuck on windows? What's stopping you from installing a GNU/Linux distro? Much easier to replace/customize anything. I don't mean to suggest y when someone is asking x, rather I don't see any reason to be using Windows (especially Windows 11) these days.
