File Explorer
CodenStuff
Hello,

One thing I dont think anyone has made (atleast on Codenstuff.com) is a file browser/explorer. It would be great if someone took up this challenge and created a file explorer that lets the user do atleast the basic things you can already do with your default explorer like:

Copy files
Move files
Delete files
Paste files

Just a file/folder explorer that could be expanded with image previews..video previews..music previews..document previews ..file organising etc.

I wonder if anyone can make one from scratch cooll;

I think no-one has made it because they're busy with their own projects(or at-least me), but when i have time i will try to do this.

For moving files all you need to do is copy first then delete afterwards.

Re: File Explorer

What about:
Code: Select all
IO.File.Move("C:\FileName.ext", "D:\FileName.ext")
First part is the location and name of the file you want to move and the second part is where you want to move the file too.
