Files looks great but it has performance issues and occasional crashes when I tried it out a few months ago. When going into subfolders, there is a very noticeable subsecond lag which I don’t get from native Explorer. For all complaints of lack of features that Windows File Explorer gets, it’s still a very respectable native GUI app for being Windows’ most used program!

It's usable most of the time until it isn't. Far to often I wonder what they were thinking making things. Say, where is the recycle bin? If I could switch to the windows 95 explorer I would do it immediately.

Yeah I had to give up on Files because of the performance too. I'm glad this exists.

yeah honestly files was such a disappointment for me. Modern i5 from 2 years ago desktop system on windows 11 and it would crash every 2-3 days just browsing with at most <15 tabs open.

Was it coded in electron? What's filepilot made in?
