Many plugins are freely available, e.g. different packer formats or file viewer for special file formats.
The Android version has plugins for direct access to external servers, which it presents as if they were simply local SD cards, making file copying from phone<>server trivial - currently Google Drive, Windows OneDrive, TotalDrip, LAN, SFTP and WebDAV are supported.
It also has an integrated media player that works both foreground and background - video and audio. Supporting most, if not all, file formats. 
Many functions not available by default are supported and can be assigned to icons. For example it supports device->device file transfer over WI-FI using an associated app.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ghisler.com/faq.htm|title=Total Commander - Support area|website=www.ghisler.com|access-date=14 September 2018}}</ref>
