Jack Wallen/ZDNETThe file manager — that ubiquitous app everyone takes for granted — is usually the last thing on your device you ever think about, but one of the first things you use. File managers help us keep our files and folders organized, assist in locating documents, and make it easy to open files.Imagine your digital life without a file manager.But here’s the thing: Most people stick with whatever file manager their operating system offers.
