FixFinder aims to resolve that most annoying bug in Mavericks which extends the file name column beyond the width of the Finder window. Viewing file attributes requires horizontal scrolling skills and a good bit of patience.
Credit goes to Christian Varga who solved this with a bit of Applescript wizardry: http://christianvarga.com/fix-finder-name-column-width-bug-osx-mavericks/

tell application "Finder"
tell the front Finder window
-- get the current bounds of the finder window
set b to the bounds
-- create a really wide window
set the bounds to {item 1 of b, item 2 of b, 3000, item 4 of b}
-- set window back to its original size
set the bounds to b
end tell
