Hi there
I have been working on my SD cards in SDExplorer and Microsoft Explorer, this last few days and have been very pleased with the simplicity of using the various functions.

I knew I had a particular Style on a backup SD file and I wanted to copy the style to another SD card in my USB Reader/Writer and work with it. I did not want to restore the whole BACKUP file to an actual SD card.

So

I RESTORED my complete BACKUP file to a folder on the PC, (this is very quick even for a large card). I then copied the required file(s) I wanted across to my current SD card in my F drive.

This whole exercise took me literally minutes.

What a good idea I thought and then I also thought I could leave the Folder that I had RESTOREd on my desktop and copy the file back when I alter it and copy from it again.

Wait a minute - I could RESTORE all my SD cards to folders on my PC and I can then move backward and forwards across to a working SD as and when I want.

I also tried the Merge feature today - With an SD card already live at the screen you can select MERGE, choose your BACKUP and merge it to the one on the screen. Taking that one step further you can then merge another backup into this larger file (Always assuming that you have enough room on the SD card).

Much more simpler than in Song Manager.

The flexibility of the SDExplorer tool is great! The days of working on one SD card at a time are gone! We can actually also see what is happening whilst it is happening.
