Filesmash Fast file manager for Windows - Faster Windows file manager with miller columns

Filesmash is a native Windows file browser built with C++/Win32 and a custom UI engine, without Electron or a heavy web runtime to make it feel faster, cleaner and more productive. It combines Column View, Quick Preview, fast search, tab workflows, Network Drive support, folder memory, cloud integration, and deeper control over the right-click menu, all in one lightweight desktop app. After months of private beta testing with 400+ of users, Filesmash is now opening up to a wider audience.
