Excellent lightweight app that doesn't rely on virtual categories, which can become really flaky over time (and I haven't found a way to cleanly fix them). Here, what you see is what you get, the actual files and folders. The only thing missing is a recycle bin and cloud access. For the former, I do realize the direct access nature of the app may make that impossible, so great care is required to not accidentally delete files since it's a permanent operation. At least a warning is first given!
