It's funny to see the gradient in the title bar, contrasting with the bland borderless-sea-of-whiteness of the rest of the UI.

Nearly 55MB, compressed, for something that attempts to mimic some of the functionality of the regular explorer.exe, is quite frankly ridiculous. I don't have a system to check right now, but I believe even latest Windows 10 has an explorer.exe < 5MB (uncompressed), and it certainly seems to have a lot more functionality than this one. A peek at the code gives a hint as to why... the first file I look at is this
https://github.com/duke7553/files-uwp/blob/master/Files%20UW...
and the first thing I see is not exactly confidence-inspiring:
if(tabInstance.AlwaysPresentCommands.isEnabled == true)
{
tabInstance.AlwaysPresentCommands.isEnabled = true;
}
else
{
tabInstance.AlwaysPresentCommands.isEnabled = false;
}
...WTF.
It seems that everything "UWP" I come across follows the same trend: a lot of code, a lot of resource consumption, some flashy "modern" UI, yet very little in the way of actual functionality.
