The ASP.NET MVC File Manager (File explorer) is a graphical user interface control for managing the file system that allows users to perform most common file operations like accessing, editing, and sorting files or folders. This control provides easy navigation for browsing folders to select a file or folder from the file system.
The ASP.NET MVC File Manager File Manager UI consists of toolbar, navigation pane, and content pane sections through which the files or folders in the file system can be accessed and managed. The complete layout can be customized with features like right-to-left alignment, enabling or disabling the toolbar and navigation pane, and switching between views.
The ASP.NET MVC File Manager File Manager toolbar contains the tools for performing various operations like file upload or download and view switching. The toolbar can also be configured to add any custom functionality to be performed with the file system.
The ASP.NET MVC File Manager navigation pane allows quick and direct access to a file or folder in a file system where the entire folder hierarchy is listed using a tree view. This can be made visible or hidden as needed.
The content pane displays the files and folders in the file system. The files in the content pane can be displayed in either large icons view or details view.
The ASP.NET MVC File Manager control includes all the common operations needed for managing a file system: copy, move, upload, download, edit, create, delete, and sort.
The ASP.NET MVC File Manager File Manager control allows for the easy uploading and downloading of files in a file system.
Files and folders in the file system can be sorted in either ascending or descending order simply by clicking the column header. Files and folders can be sorted based on name, date created, size, etc.
The File Manager control contains built-in searching functionality that allows you to search for and access a file or folder in the current path, as well as its child folders.
Files and folders can be moved within the file system by dragging and dropping them. Drag-and-drop support can be turned on or off in the File Manager.
Restrict access to files and folders by defining a set of rules for them. Only authorized users will be able to access them.
You can specify the types of files that can be uploaded in the File Manager. Other file types will be restricted on upload.
The File Manager control has built-in support for the selection of multiple files or folders. Multiple-file selection will be effective when a single operation like download or delete is performed over multiple files in the file system.
The File Manager control has context menu support to list the operations to be performed with the files and folders. It appears when a file or folder is right-clicked. The context menu items can be customized according to user preference.
The text of a context menu list and the tooltips being displayed in the user interface can be localized to any supported language. The File Manager control uses a localization library (l10) to localize the text values.
The File Manager control allows you to manage data from the following storage services.

We do not sell the ASP.NET MVC File Manager separately. It is only available for purchase as part of the Syncfusion ASP.NET MVC suite, which contains over 80 ASP.NET MVC components, including the File Manager. A single developer license for the Syncfusion Essential Studio for ASP.NET MVC suite costs $995.00 USD, including one year of support and updates. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our sales team today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
You can find our ASP.NET MVC File Manager demo here.
No, our 80+ ASP.NET MVC components, including File Manager, are not sold individually, only as a single package. However, we have competitively priced the product so it only costs a little bit more than what some other vendors charge for their File Manager alone. We have also found that, in our experience, our customers usually start off using one of our products and then expand to several products quickly, so we felt it was best to offer all 80+ ASP.NET MVC components for a flat fee of $995/developer. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our sales team today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
No, this is a commercial product and requires a paid license. However, a free community license is also available for companies and individuals whose organizations have less than $1 million USD in annual gross revenue and five or fewer developers.
A good place to start would be our comprehensive getting started documentation.
