Solid Explorer manages files from local definitions first. Bookmarks with network shares, cloud connections, layouts, and themes persist in private app storage. Root browsing extends reach on rooted phones.

That makes the settings export the migration unit. Exact folder names may vary by version. Re-grant storage permissions after moves; Android revokes them on reinstall. FTP bookmarks sync via export. Archive formats open inline. Root trash restores deletes. Chromecast streams media directly.
