Well, time for my usual trinity of software mentions :D Preface: All paid, commercial, all windows only
DirectoryOpus By far the best explorer replacement. I only use a fraction of its features, and it’s still more powerful than all alternatives I’ve seen.
EmEditor stupidly expensive, but if you either care a lot about very quickly opening files, opening multi-GB files, or have to look into way too many CSV files, it’s the best text-editor. Nothing like formatting and only barebones syntax highlighting, so certainly not a VS Code replacement ;)
MediaMonkey 4 I’m not actually sure if you can still buy 4 outside the lifetime license, maybe the 5 key works? Anyway, 4 is native, 5 is electron crap. Best music management app that happens to also allow playback ;) (edit: Screenshot because the site only shows v5)

EarTrumpet far better volume changer than what windows now has.
It’s been many years since I tried it last, but back then MM simply had far more management features. If you don’t have any pain points with musicbee, I don’t think there’s a reason to switch, though.
But IME most tools for example don’t have something as simple as “tagging issues”:

I’ve been using musicbee for years, is monkey really better?
