File Explorer, previously known as Windows Explorer, is a file manager application and default desktop environment that is included with releases of the Microsoft Windows operating system from Windows 95 onwards. It provides a graphical user interface for accessing the file systems, as well as user interface elements such as the taskbar and desktop.
The application was renamed from "Windows Explorer" to "File Explorer" in Windows 8;[6] however, the old name of "Windows Explorer" can still be seen in the Windows Task Manager.
