The media files

The C:\Nokia and E:\ directories contain all the top-level folders in the Phone Memory and MMC Card tabs of the Gallery).

So, why would anyone use FExplorer rather than the native Gallery to manipulate those media files? Well, for a couple of reasons:
  1. FExplorer supports file search via the Options File Find menu. You can search the entire device or any directory using PC-style wildcards in filenames (e.g., scr*.jpg).
  2. It is easier to move files to other directories using the Options Edit Copy/Paste menu in FExplorer than it is with the file move function in the Gallery.
  3. FExplorer allows you to move nonmedia files into and out of any folders on the device. I will discuss this point in more detail in the next section.
