A file manager is a computer program that provides a user interface to work with file systems. The most common operations on files are create, open, edit, view, print, play, rename, move, copy, delete, attributes, properties, search/find, and permissions.
Typically files are displayed in a hierarchy. File managers may contain features inherited from web browsers, including forward and back navigational buttons.
Some browsers may also provide network connectivity, e.g. via FTP, NFS or Samba.
