Explorer layout

Best for users who compare folders, move files between services, or work on compact displays.

Dual pane by default

Open a source on the left and a destination on the right, then copy, move, or drag files with clear context.

Single pane when needed

Switch to one active pane for narrow screens, focused browsing, or support sessions.

Pane memory

Each pane keeps its current source, path, sort, and view preferences so you can return to work quickly.

Local and cloud mixed

Pair local folders with S3, R2, SFTP, FTP, Dropbox, OneDrive, pCloud, WebDAV, or Synology.

Important details

Good for verification

Side-by-side panes make it easier to compare source and destination before starting a large transfer.

Good for accessibility

Single-pane mode reduces density when a user needs larger content or a smaller window.

Good for support

Pane state, breadcrumbs, and clear source labels make remote troubleshooting simpler.
