My app will create some files on path like:

/data/user/0/com.mycompanyname.com/files/test.jpg

I can access this files on my app, but I want to inspect this files on windows explorer, where are these files located?

In eclipse I can use "Device File Exploer", but I can not find this tool on VS.

Developer technologies .NET Xamarin

    Hello,

    This tool is not available on VS. And you can use "Device File Explorer" on Android Studio as long as the Android emulator is running. Please try to debug the project by VS and make sure the emulator is running, then you can switch to Android Studio, click View > Tool Windows > Device File Explorer or click the Device File Explorer button in the tool window bar to open the Device File Explorer. For more details, refer to View on-device files with Device File Explorer | Android Developers

    In addition, this is a site for support, so please use the right site to requests new feature requests about a Microsoft product or report any bugs. You can suggest a feature about Visual Studio, see: Report a problem with Visual Studio - Visual Studio (Windows) | Microsoft Learn

    Best Regards,
    Wenyan Zhang
