Windows File Manager


C# • Windows Forms

This is my attempt to replicate the Windows File Manager app. You can view all of your files on your computer, and navigate to them, as you normally would on the original windows file explorer. The design was modified intentionally to make the tagging functionality easier to use.

Functionalities include:

  • Viewing/opening files and directories
  • Searching for files in the current folder
  • Adding tags to files or directories
  • Filtering files/folders by tags

Functionalities pending:

  • Copying and pasting items
  • Ability to work with non-windows (eg, Mac) directories
Adding tags

You can add tags using the edit button on the right side of a folder or file. Tags will then show on the left column of the file explorer. You can then click on them to filter folders and files by tag.
