File Explorer: Difference between revisions

'''File Explorer''' is the application responsible for the [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] user interface and the default Windows file manager. The first build to include it was [[Windows 95]] [[Windows 95 build 58s|build 58s]], under the name of ''Cabinet'' for the shell portion and ''File Cabinet'' for the file manager part. [[Windows 95 build 189|Build 189]] is the first build leaked with Cabinet renamed to ''Windows Explorer''. During the development of Windows 95, several ''Shell Technology Previews'' were released for [[Windows NT 3.5x|Windows NT 3.51]], that brought the new user interface to the NT series. [[Internet Explorer 4]] updated Windows Explorer with a new, web-integrated experience. [[Windows Vista]] saw major changes to Explorer, simplifying the UI somewhat, as well as removing features Microsoft thought were under-utilized. [[Windows 7]] added Libraries to the Explorer experience. In [[Windows 8]], Windows Explorer was renamed to ''File Explorer''.
