Root Explorer (RE for short) is an extremely powerful must-have file manager for rooted Android OS (requires root permission to work), developed by Speed Software from United Kingdom. It enables users to access the whole Android file system (even including any hidden system data folders) and easily to perform operations with the highest authority required.

In addition to all the basic functions of common file managers (such as create new folder, view/edit file, setup application, etc.), Root Explorer extra provides support of viewing multiple file formats, permissions management, as well as file search function which makes finding something on a smartphone become more convenient and efficient. Moreover, one of the biggest advantages of Root Explorer is that it is capable of deleting any inbuilt apps of Android OS with ease.
