Somehow I have used this app for 10+ years and never left a review. Root Explorer is THE de-facto standard for browsing files on an Android device in my opinion. I have become so accustomed to it I truly would not be able to function without it. I use this on an unrooted device and it is just fine. Obviously I do not browse root shares. Samba / Windows Share connectivity works great and is easily my most used feature. Now that I have a VPN setup I can easily grab files from my PC remotely!
