Desktop.Tech

Desktop.Tech is a lightweight utility designed to make the file management on your local drives and cloud or server easier. You need to create an account and you will need to add the servers or cloud storage services you use to take maximum advantage of the tool.

The application comes with a modern interface and includes a few standard commands, namely New Window, Search your files, Explorer and File transfer, each representative for the type of function they perform. The GUI is not customizable and does not allow you to move the commands around. The only modification you can do is select the colors of the accents – from the Options menu – so you can view clearer when you are performing a certain action.

While you cannot remove these quick links, you should bear in mind that the tool allows you to add shortcuts to the programs that you are using frequently. In order to create a quick link, all you need to do is drag and drop the executable and it is going to be placed in the upper section.

A noteworthy function of the application is the integrated file transfer, particularly since it supports some of the most commonly known protocols. You can effortlessly synchronize and transfer files to FTP servers, Amazon S3, SSH / SCH or some of the popular cloud services, like Dropbox, OneDrive, Azure Blog, Google Drive and Apache Hadoop WebHDFS.

Lastly, it is worth mentioning that the application comes with an advanced index-based search function and consequentially, you can find a particular file or folder within milliseconds on the drives. Desktop.Tech can constitute an alternative to the minimalistic Explorer embedded with Windows.
