Feature: Name

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the correct place.

I've been using this application for about a week now and I can see some of the benefits of using it. However where I fall into problems (frustration) is when Im trying to figure something out or do something I would easily know how to do in Windows Explorer, I try to google it...... This is the problem, "Files" alone is such a generic name it makes finding information (outside of the website and git) almost impossible. It would be akin to buying tools from a brand called TOOLS and trying to find specific info on a tool that TOOLS provides.
I think Files is a good name tbh it is just hard to easily find info online for. If it was Files XYZ, Filez or Philes or something you could "Files _____" in google it would help. Im not suggesting these name specifically just examples of how it could be distigueshed from the word "Files" to specifically this program!

I'm not trying to be critical of your app or brand, just kind of a QOL issue.. Thanks

Thanks for the feedback, there has been discussion on this but nothing that stuck. Files Community is usually more searchable and gives results based on this app.

Thank you for your feedback. We agree that a more distinctive name would offer some advantages, and we’re open to suggestions if someone proposes an idea (see issue #13619). That said, 'Files' has served us well so far, and we’re not actively seeking a replacement. Renaming could also introduce confusion for existing users, which is something we’d like to avoid.

When looking for resources to get the most out of Files. We recommend starting with our documentation site at https://files.community or joining our Discord community at https://discord.gg/files. For online searches, you can try 'Files App' or 'Files for Windows' to find relevant info more easily.
