The ShellBrowser .Net Edition is a set of UI controls that look and behave exactly like the Windows Explorer. The ShellListView and ShellTreeView controls imitate the corresponding parts of the Windows Explorer, including correct icons with overlays, the Explorer context menu, thumbnails, details, virtual folders and shell extensions. Beyond the normal Explorer look & feel, these controls support file filters, checkboxes and allow the customization of many aspects of their appearance and behaviour.

The invisible ShellControlConnector control allows to synchronize multiple shell controls without a line of code. An additional thumbnail control displays previews of the selected files in any size. Interesting sample projects and a detailed help file are included.

The ShellBrowser .Net Edition is also available as native VCL version for Borland Delphi and C++ Builder and as ActiveX version.
