Tell you the truth I am not the biggest fan of Nautilus. I don't know it's habitual or what but I like how Windows Explorer (WE) handles things. But no, I'm not going back and I don't have to.
If you are like me then you'll find this app interesting and worth of download. It's called XFE, simply a WE-like file manager/explorer/browser for Linux. I tried it in Ubuntu and Xubuntu, and it does its work nicely and lightly.
XFE already listed in Ubuntu repository, so it's easy, very easy to install one. This is how :

• Application -> Add/Remove Programs -> look for XFE (in Ubuntu) - or - Application -> System -> Add/Remove (in Xubuntu),
  
• Checkmark it and apply, there you go.

To make easier to launch XFE you can create launcher on your desktop or panel, and type the command :  xfe .

Unfortunately XFE that available at Ubuntu repository is not the newest version. To get the newest version download these two files.

• XFE
• libfox-1.6-0_1.6.33-1_i386.deb

The next steps is what I did in my PC, I'm not responsible if it works/or not with your PC. In this order :

1. go to application -> system -> synaptic package manager and install libcupsys2
2. install libfox-1.6-0_1.6.33-1_i386.deb you just downloaded earlier (double click it)
3. then install XFE (double click it)

If you already installed XFE from the repository, I think you must uninstall it first to avoid conflict. And do steps above.

The next thing I want to do is to make XFE as the default file manager,
but I don't know how, yet. Anyone can help? Or I'll update this post as
soon I get the solution.

X File Explorer (Xfe) is an MS-Explorer or Commander like file
manager for X. It is based on the popular, but discontinued, X Win
Commander, originally developed by Maxim Baranov.

Xfe is developed since 2002 by Roland Baudin, a french Linux enthusiast.
