File Explorer Extension: The Missing Features

Version 2.05
Cost: Free
Hou Ming (Developer Info )

We are always looking for the next bigger and better application or at least an addition to the existing ones. If youre a regular user of the default File Explore on your Windows Mobile device, you would have noticed that the features are rather limited. File Explorer Extension adds to that lack and give it added features that you wish the application had in the first place.

While the application may be introduced through XDA-Developer, it is developed and released through a Japanese site. Dont worry about all the Japanese text, just Ctrl+F to find File Explorer Extension V2.05. Download using the 3rd link from the top that has the word CAB& in the link title.
Features Once installed, nothing more needs to be done. All you need to do is to open the File Explorer to access the extended functions as listed below:
" Resizable header for easy sorting by file name, date of last modification or size.
" Tree view of folders; you can now jump easily from a location to any other on your device in one step.
" Show extension option for those who ask themselves the same question I do: What type of file is this?
" Icon view that enables the display of files as icons similar to your desktop computer.
" Real time image preview; now you dont have to open several files in order to send the one you desire.
" Open with Program allows you easily select an application to open the specific file you select (useful in case you dont have the correct file associations or when you want Album app to open your images instead of Windows default picture viewer.
" File property context menu for easy renaming and attribute changing.
" Open all executables with Parameters in case you need a special parameter when launching an application.
" Sending shortcut to Programs for instant shortcut creation of executables placed directly in Programs folder in Start Menu.

Enjoy the extended File Explorer!
