This freeware by Hou Ming is a very cool (and very small) add on for File Explorer that adds a lot of missing features that will enhance your ability to work with files on your device.

Here are some of the fantastic “must have” features it adds:

• 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
• Icon view that enables the display of files as icons similar to your desktop computer
• Real time image preview; now you don’t have to open several files in order to send the one you desire
• Show extension option for those who ask themselves the same question I do: “What type of file is this?
• Open with Program allows you easily select an application to open the specific file you select (useful in case you don’t 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.
