This is a simple dual-pane file manager for the WHS management console. It allows you to safely copy, move and delete files on your home server. You can navigate all files shares on the server and any removable storage devices attached to the server. The latest version even lets you open/run files locally from your server.

Use command buttons in the middle to copy, move or delete files. Or you can drag and drop files and folders from one side to the other.
