Applications to Manage Files

Dolphin

Dolphin is the KDE4 default file manager. It is easy to use, clean and uncluttered. It will display previews of your files and organize them in grid or detailed view. The navigation window can be split and Dolphin sports the use of tabs to browse different directories in the same window.



For more information, please refer to the Dolphin Handbook.

Konqueror

Konqueror is a powerful multi-purpose tool that used to be KDE file default manager before KDE4 release. It is now KDE default web browser but kept its file management abilities. Its very configurable interface might look confusing for the beginner due to its numerous possiblities.



For more information, please refer to the Konqueror Handbook.
