“The definitive file explorer for your Pocket PC”

by James Thornton

I love using my Pocket PC but I've never found the experience of navigating files on the device as slick as it is in the native version of Windows.

Resco Explorer replicates the look and functionality of Windows Explorer on your Pocket PC. Granted, Windows Explorer isn't perfect, but it's a whole lot more intuitive than Windows Mobile's hotchpotch of a file manager, as this neat application proves.

The program is installed painlessly via Windows onto your Pocket PC, and once in place, provides a much quicker and easier way of navigating through your files. Initially, folders are displayed in a column, though the layout can be tweaked to the max, by applying a tree structure view, changing icon and folder sizes and sorting using a range of variables.

Open the 'Menu' and you'll uncover a treasure trove of settings that allows you to completely customise your file management experience. There's a Send option for quickly sharing files via email, Bluetooth or Infrared; a fast and reliable Find tool, file encryption, an Edit menu for performing file commands, and a comprehensive Help menu too. Delve into the 'Options' menu and amazingly you'll discover there's yet more settings for personalising your file manager.

If you're looking for a quicker and easier way to navigate and manage files in Windows Mobile, I doubt you'll find anything better than Resco File Explorer.
