CajaLinux vs Windows File ExplorerWindows

Caja como alternativa Linux ao Windows File Explorer

Atualizado em

Nossa avaliação

Caja is a solid replacement for Windows File Explorer if you're using the MATE desktop or prefer a lightweight, traditional file manager. It handles basic file operations reliably—browse, copy, move, rename, delete—and supports drag-and-drop, keyboard shortcuts, and archive browsing. Users coming from Windows will find the layout familiar, though some advanced features like integrated cloud storage or deep system integration are missing. It’s best suited for users who value simplicity and don’t need advanced metadata or network-heavy workflows.

Instalar Caja

O que funciona igual

  • Graphical browsing of local and external drives
  • Copy, move, rename, and delete operations via GUI or context menu
  • Drag-and-drop file manipulation within and between windows
  • Sidebar with bookmarks and device shortcuts
  • Search bar with filtering as you type

O que muda

  • No built-in indexed full-text search like Windows Search
  • Thumbnail previews limited by installed codecs and MATE settings
  • No native integration with OneDrive or other cloud services
  • Root access requires separate policy setup (e.g., caja-admin)
  • Fewer metadata display options compared to Explorer’s details pane

Abrindo seus arquivos do Windows File Explorer

Caja opens the same file types as Windows File Explorer—documents, images, archives, and media—provided the correct applications and codecs are installed. It reads NTFS, FAT, and exFAT drives out of the box when mounted. You can access, copy, and move files from Windows partitions without conversion. Archives (ZIP, TAR, etc.) are browsable and extractable. However, .lnk files and some Windows-specific metadata are ignored, which is normal behavior on Linux.

Trocando o Windows File Explorer pelo Caja, passo a passo

  1. Install Caja via your distro’s package manager (e.g., 'sudo apt install caja')
  2. Set Caja as default file manager through system settings or MATE Control Center
  3. Copy or symlink frequently accessed directories to the bookmarks file (~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks)
  4. Enable thumbnail previews in Caja preferences if not already active
  5. Install optional plugins like caja-gksu for root actions via right-click
