Nemo, alternative Linux à Windows File Explorer

Mis à jour le

Notre avis

Nemo is a solid replacement for Windows File Explorer, especially for users on MATE or those who prefer a traditional desktop layout. It handles core file operations reliably—browse, copy, move, delete, drag-and-drop—and adds useful features like tabs and split views. If you're comfortable with Linux desktop environments and don’t rely on deep Windows integration, Nemo provides a familiar, functional experience. It won't mimic Explorer exactly, but it covers most daily tasks well for average and intermediate users.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil

  • Supports basic file operations: copy, move, rename, delete
  • Drag-and-drop functionality within and between windows
  • Integrated search bar and location path editing
  • Thumbnail previews for images and some media files
  • Customizable sidebar and bookmarked locations

Ce qui change

  • No native integration with Windows-specific services like OneDrive or Active Directory
  • Split view is manual, not automatic like Explorer’s dual-pane mode
  • No built-in cloud sync UI beyond what GVFS provides (e.g. Nextcloud via plugin)
  • Less polished for new users outside MATE; interface feels dated compared to modern Windows
  • Missing index-based search—relies on real-time filesystem scan

Ouvrir vos fichiers Windows File Explorer

Nemo handles common file types (documents, images, archives) just like Windows File Explorer. It reads NTFS, FAT, and exFAT drives without issue when mounted. You can open, copy, and edit files created in Windows without conversion. Thumbnail previews work for standard formats (JPEG, PNG, PDF if plugins are installed). However, .lnk files and Windows shortcuts are not interpreted—only symbolic links on Linux. Proprietary formats like .docx or .xlsx open fine in external apps, but Nemo only manages them as files.

Passer de Windows File Explorer à Nemo, étape par étape

  1. Install Nemo using your distro’s package manager (e.g., 'sudo apt install nemo' on Debian/Ubuntu)
  2. Set Nemo as default file manager via system settings or 'xdg-mime'
  3. Copy over bookmarks from your old system manually to the bookmarks section
  4. Enable thumbnailers for media and documents if not already active
  5. Install optional plugins for added functionality (e.g., nemo-fileroller for archive handling)

Questions fréquentes

Can I use Nemo on desktop environments other than MATE?

Yes, Nemo runs on GNOME, XFCE, and others, but may pull in MATE libraries. It works fine, though appearance might not match perfectly.

Does Nemo support opening folders as administrator?

Yes, but not directly from the GUI. Use 'gksudo nemo' or 'pkexec nemo' in a terminal to launch with root privileges.

Is tabbed browsing available by default?

Yes, tabs are supported out of the box. Right-click a folder and choose 'Open in New Tab', or use Ctrl+T to open a new tab.
