I had my old Kindle connected to my PC, and it showed a device in the "This PC" screen along with all my Hard Drives. Double-clicking it opens DroidExplorer and my device if connected. However, it doesn't open my new device (obviously) and sits there doing nothing and never goes away. How can I remove that from the list? Is it listed as an "Android Adapter USB Device" under Device Manager? For others who see this, I just want to remove the icon that DroidExplorer has added. This is what it looks like: >

I have lots of albums containing mp3 files on my Android phone. To listen to these tracks I have tried some music apps, but I am facing the same issue with lots of them : the small mp3 files (< 1 MB or so) are not showing up ! They are displayed if I am using a file explorer app, but not on the music apps, so I cannot listen to them. Why is it so? Is this normal? Does it depend on my phone, Android version, or only the music apps? Is there a way to stop this? I was not able to find how to remove this filter in the parameters of the apps. Do you have the name of free music apps that do the job? Thanks

I installed Droid Explorer. When trying to run it, I got an error that says > > > Could not find a part of the path 'C:\ProgramData\DroidExplorer\assets\[DEFAULT].png'. I put it manually at /ProgramData folder, but it doesn't work. How to fix this?

I'm trying to install DroidExplorer, and before finishing the installation the program asks me for the "Android SDK path". I have created the folders and downloaded the the Android SDK from Android.com (only the SDK) but the installation program keeps asking me for that sdk path. How can I resolve this?

I have an Xperia Z C6606 rooted Android version 4.3 I have tried both 4.3 and 7 Android SDK. I kept getting the error message "device '' not found" as shown in the below screenshot.

I love the idea of being able to browse root directories on my laptop. But I can't for the life of me get droid explore to work, I have a note 4 (rooted of course), I am running stock Sammy ROM, I have installed adbd insecure on my device and I can access root via adb, but I cannot do anything with this software. I also have busybox installed to /xbin. When I click connect device, my device does show up, but when I click on said device, the application grays out and i cannot click anything other than min/max or close. It is the same with a rooted Samsung nexus that i have, running CM11. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. EDIT: i am running 64bit win 7 and I have tried reinstalling the software twice.

I have Huawei Ascend Y550. It is rooted and I can see, edit, and change files with a root explorer app. However, I have difficulty doing the same in Droid Explorer. I am using Droid Explorer because no matter what I try, I can't seem to get my work PC to recognise and get access to my phone. I have tried all sorts of things, and the phone is recognised on another work PC but not on the one I use. I'm new to Droid Explorer. I have followed all the instructions, installed it, and able to view my files and SD card as well, but I cannot see photos in the DCIM folder. I can see the .thumbnails, 100ANDRO, and Camera folders inside the DCIM folder. When I go into the Camera folder, I can see the folders I have created that contain the specific photos. But when I get into each of those, there is nothing shown inside. Here are the log files from Droid Explorer: - http://www.mediafire.com/download/inml7ubbdbhf518/Harold_Debug_Log_28.2.16.log - http://www.mediafire.com/download/1lxi7ss3aa7q8b8/DroidExplorer20160221.log20160221.log - http://www.mediafire.com/download/mxqhaznag62anat/DroidExplorer20160227.log - http://www.mediafire.com/download/xchike02rs9l9xq/DroidExplorer20160228.log - http://www.mediafire.com/download/inml7ubbdbhf518/Harold_Debug_Log_28.2.16.log

For some reason, I cannot access /data/data with Droid Explorer **1** after adbd insecure install on my phone.**2** I CAN access the folder via adb and su command. What am I missing? (I want to modify a game file more conveniently) Rooted stock Samsung Galaxy S5, hacked to work with Xposed framework. ---- **1**Note that *DroidExplorer* is ***NOT*** an app running on the device, but a Windows (.NET) application accessing the device over ADB – so suggesting "another file explorer app" is not useful :) **2**Of course I also activated insecure mode after installing it

Droid Explorer does not show hidden files. Some "root explorer" apps show hidden files, e.g. on /data/data etc., but Droid Explorer does not. Of course, ES File Explorer also does not show these, it shows only files which can be seen by the phone's own file explorer, but some "root explorers" show these. How I can adjust Droid Explorer to show hidden files?

When opening Droid Explorer, it gives an error message "Input string was not in a correct format." How to fix it?

When I launch Droid Explorer , I get an error message that states *Unable to locate the Android SDK tools, please reinstall the application*. I installed the Android SDK tools from the SDK Download Page . --- *Note: I am the lead developer of Droid Explorer. I am posting this question as I get a lot of bug reports for this issue. I am trying out using Android Enthusiasts as somewhat of a support Q&A for Droid Explorer. I will monitor any question tagged with [tag:droidexplorer].*

I can't find the simplest of information on anything for Droid Explorer. For instance, I did a backup, the backup screen disappeared, where does it put my *.ab file? Does the Droid Explorer app have documentation?

For some reason the Droid Explorer (and other apps) wont show my Samsung device at all. The button "Restart ADB" works, but doesn't accomplish anything. Using **adb** manually works perfectly and the device shows up too.

I've downloaded de.zip and unpacked it, although it came up with an error about something wrong with the header. Now I have a folder with lots of things, but I have no clue how to get this app started. It doesn't look like a Windows program. I have no experience installing something on other platforms. Which platform is it meant for? Can someone please send me a link with installation info for that platform? Keen to get started investigating the contents of a backup.ab file. Many thanks!

droid explorer can't recognise sdk directory That is the SDK directory, it's what Android Studio shows under file..project structure. C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk

When I open DroidExplorer I get this error: What can I do to fix this?

I accidentally deleted the entire photos folder on my Galaxy Note 4. My quest to recover the photos in this folder has led me here. I have installed the SDK on my PC (Win7) and droidexplorer is all set up, but it won't detect the device. Yes, developer mode is activated and yes, the USB debugger thingy is turned on. Droidexplorer sounds really super helpful, but it's not detecting my phone. I saw several other threads about platform-tools needing to be reverted to an older version, but I can't figure out how to find the version I need, and it is difficult to understand some of the posts/events/etc. between stackexchange and github because I am not super experienced with coding. I got this far because I'm not very good at giving up on things, but I am just about out of time to spend on this problem. About the device: - Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (refurbished, in case it matters - Unrooted. Not necessarily opposed to rooting the phone, but if it would wipe memory that won't work. - Running 5.1.1 I need help figuring out why droidexplorer cannot find my phone. Do I need to replace the platform-tools folder? Is it something else? Is the damn thing too old for this? Thanks to anyone who is willing to help.

When attempting to use the restore existing backup or basically any function of Droid Explorer, nothing happens. When I click on Droid Explorer from the menu created, this is what I get. > > > Input string was not in a correct format. It doesn't appear to be working in any means.

Unable to locate the Android SDK tool, Please reinstall the application. I have done SDK download and the exact path I have put. But the same error occurs again and again. I uploaded the video in Dropbox, please watch. https://www.dropbox.com/s/x7xgbrigv1i01sp/Untitled%202.mp4?dl=0 Thanks.
