CMFileManager PSP is a PSP application built using the unofficial PSPSDK and glib2d (modded). The user interface in this homebrew is heavily inspired and based on the LineageOS/CM file manager. The aim of this project is to provide a stable and up to date file manager that makes use of updated tools, whilst offering a modernized and user friendly interace.

CMFileManager PSP is the only homebrew that properly uses the 'move' function correctly for moving files/folder from one place to another. Unlike other file managers for PSP which copies a file from one place to another and then deletes it, which can take a while depending on the file size.

• Move files/folders.

• Multi file handling functions for copy/move/delete.

• Browse other drives like flah0, flash1 and UMD (if not using PSP Go).
• Support for both ef0:/ (internal) and ms0:/ (external) drives on PSP Go.
• Screenshots in .PNG format. Use L + R to capture a screenshot.
• Audio Player 16-Bit short 41K - 48K Hz. (FLAC, IT, MOD, MP3, OGG, OPUS, S3M, WAV and XM).

Installation

There are 2 releases. One is for regular PSP and the other is for PSP Go with an external SD (M2) card.

If you do not have an external memory stick in your PSP Go, you can use the regular version.

To install, enter USB mode on your PSP device.

Then drag the PSP folder from the archive to the root of your memory card (if it asks to replace anything, select yes).

Exit USB, navigate to the game menu and then run CM File Manager PSP.

User guide

FTP Mode Instructions:

• Press Start to open settings menu > FTP connection.

  • Use an FTP client like WinSCP and enter the IP and port (1337).
  • And make sure to use anonymous login.
