    A good file manager is very essential to browse files, find your downloads and to manage storage space on your device. It doesn’t matter whether you’re using Android, Windows, iOS or Chromebook, you will have a built-in file manager to view and manage your local files. Apart from the default app, there are so many third-party file managers available for all devices including Chromebook. They will provide more features and convenience than the built-in app. To manage your Chromebook, we have picked some of the best file managers.

    Files App

    It is a default File Manager in Chromebook. It has two sections called My Files and Google Drive. Under the ‘My Files‘ section, you can manage the files that you stored locally. The ‘Google Drive‘ lets you manage the files that you stored on your Google Drive account. With this app, you can manage all the basic operations like cut, copy. transfer, rename and compress. The app has a built-in image editor to edit the photos that you stored locally on your computer.

    Once you begin installing Android apps on your Chromebook, your device will have two storage locations. With the default File manager, it is difficult to manage both the storages. Hence, you need some third-party File manager apps on your Chromebook.

    Solid Explorer

    Solid Explorer is an Android file manager optimized for Chrome OS support. You can use the two-panel view to transfer files between different locations – regular local storage, the storage optimized for Android app use and the cloud-based storages. With this File manager, you can also access the files that you stored on your own FTP or WebDav server. An additional layer of encryption will be added to your file while accessing these servers. It also supports reading and unpacking different files like ZIP, RAR, 7ZIP, and TAR. In addition to these features, it has built-in cast support. Hence you can beam your media files on Chromecast-equipped TV.

    Before installing this app, you should remember that the app costs $1.99 after the two-week trial period. Head to the Play Store app on your Chromebook to download this file manager.
