The file manager utility more than any other system app on any computing platform is the workhorse of daily computing tasks. Linux users have numerous file managers as choices. Depending on the distro, usually one or two default apps are preinstalled — but these might not be the best options. Thunar and Rox Filer offer flexibility and features not found in other typical Linux file managing systems. Thunar is designed for the Xfce Desktop Environment, but it works natively on the Gnome Desktop as well. Rox Filer runs on multiple platforms and is an integral part of the Puppy Linux distro.
