The ShellBrowser .Net Edition is a set of UI controls that look and behave exactly like the Windows Explorer.

The ShellListView and ShellTreeView controls imitate the corresponding parts of the Windows Explorer, including correct icons with overlays, the Explorer context menu, thumbnails, details, virtual folders and shell extensions.

Beyond the normal Explorer look & feel, these controls support file filters, checkboxes and allow the customization of many aspects of their appearance and behaviour.

The invisible ShellControlConnector control allows to synchronize multiple shell controls with just one line of code.

ShellBrowser .Net Edition has an additional thumbnail control displays previews of the selected files in any size. An interesting sample project and a detailed help file are included.

Requirements:

· .Net Framework 2.0
· Visual Studio
