Lightweight, standalone file explorer

Having a ton of options doesn't necessarily make a program better. Sometimes all you need is a minimalist app that does its job simply, without bells and whistles.

This is precisely what Snowbird is: a stripped-down file management tool you can use instead of the default Windows File Explorer. As it doesn't require installation, Snowbird is perfect to carry on your USB memory device for use on any computer.

Snowbird's interface includes two main panes, featuring the folder structure on the left side and the contents of the selected folder on the right side. Being a minimalist file explorer, Snowbird doesn't include image preview and has a concise context menu.

On the upside, Snowbird offers support for keyboard shortcuts and mouse gestures, so it's quick and easy to use for both keyboard and mouse fans. It also includes bookmarks for frequently-used folders, shortcuts to the folder structure you're browsing (the so-called 'breadcrumbs') and a built-in search tool that scans the selected drive or folder in search of the keywords you enter.

If you like minimalist apps that get straight to the point without wasting time, Snowbird is the kind of file manager you're looking for.

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
