    Here’s our first look at Windows 10’s modern File Explorer


    In 2017, Microsoft introduced Fluent Design and slowly many key areas of Windows 10 were updated with the new design language refresh. As part of the Fluent Design approach, Microsoft updated numerous applications such a Groove Music, Mail & Calendar, Movies & TV, Calendar, and others with various Fluent Design tweaks.

    File Explorer, which is based on the legacy code from Windows XP era, hasn’t had a lot of major design changes on Windows 10. Microsoft has only updated Explorer with Dark Theme, OneDrive integration and other minor tweaks since 2015.

    Windows 10X, which is Microsoft’s modern and modular operating system, has been rumoured to ship with a modern File Explorer that replaces legacy file manager.

    Today, Microsoft released a Windows 10X Emulator update with a long list of improvements, Win32 apps new model and also a new file manager.

    Windows 10X finally has a modern File Explorer but it can show OneDrive files only, at least for now.

    By the looks of things, new File Explorer is actually a web app and its UI is similar to the OneDrive.

    The new File Explorer doesn’t come with a sidebar or other tools. It has a completely redesigned interface that caters for foldable devices and even traditional laptops that might crop up in 2021.

    Currently, File Explorer allows users to sync files between the cloud and the device. This appears to be a very early build of the new file manager experience, so there are bugs and limitations. For example, you can only manage documents, files or pictures that you have downloaded from OneDrive.

    I wasn’t able to access the local files in the new Explorer.

    Microsoft is not clear about its plans for File Explorer on Windows 10X. We don’t know if Windows 10X will ship with this File Explorer, traditional File Explorer or that old UWP File Explorer from Windows 10 Mobile era.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Here’s our first look at Windows 10’s modern File Explorer

    Some files listed in Windows Explorer are blue font

    I seem to have run out of room on a Windows XP Pro system. I tried to defrag but don't have but 7% room available. I looked in Windows Explorer to try to find some huge files that might be corrupt and I see a few that are listed in blue. What does that mean? I have not compressed anything on purpose. Thanks
