- File Browsing: Navigate folders, view file attributes, and sort entries. Common operations include launching, renaming, deleting, and copying/moving files (copy/move may depend on connected devices and kernel support).
- Launching XEX Files: Directly execute game loaders, emulators, utilities, and homebrew apps compiled as XEX files.
- Language and Region Awareness: Works with games/homebrew across regions, since it launches the executable directly.
- Config Options: May include configurable default device, display options (icons/columns), and basic boot behaviors.
