Photo Explorer does more than just organize folders and files in your computer.
Archiving files into zip folders and reading contents of zip folders can be directly done in
Photo Explorer. What's more, images and media files contained in CDs can be cataloged
for faster and convenient browsing.
The Folder Pane
The
Folder Pane
, found on the left-hand side of the Photo Explorer window, is where
you access disk drives and manage folders in your computer. In addition, the Folder Pane
provides tabs that allow you to switch between different folder views, search for files, and
view digital camera (Exif) information.
