Program is really nice, thanks 🙂 (however it needs some time to get used to 🙂 )

Here are some thoughts I came across when trying it out.

1. How about tooltips in files table? At least for the values not fitting in column width (the ones that end with periods). But it would be even better to have a possibility to specify tooltip format (usually I do not need a Path column but having this info together with the file size, etc. in tooltip would be great)

2. It would be convenient to be able to switch program language right from program menu, not just during setup. Just consider that program can be used by two different people and they want to have it in different languages.

3. You might find reasonable to move Folder history combo above the files table. This will make working with long paths more convenient (while having tag fields of reasonable width). Besides it will keep Folder combo visible when Tag input mask is hidden.  
And then move Change directory button to the right of Folder combo 😉  
BTW, how about path auto-completion in that combo? Not just from history items but from the real folders hierarchy (just like in Run box, Win+R).

4. In the Actions dialog the word "Actions" is repeated 3 times. 🙂 Besides when there are many actions (like CD-R e.g.) horizontal scrollbar appears just because of vertical scrollbar. ☹ Is it possible to avoid adding horizontal scrolling unless it's _really_ necessary?  
BTW, actions list on Actions dialog has empty "column caption" while list on Actions options page doesn't - you might want to make them uniform. 😉  
And finally, how about changing options page "Actions" to "Action presets" - just to have different wording for "simple" actions like Replace and their complicated combinations.
