On Windows the Explorer consists of just these two components, which 
implement most of its file management functionality. So either component 
*is* an OS (Windows) file manager. The OS file access rights are 
considered sufficient to protect the machine against the user.

Editing directory names is required whenever the user wants to save 
something into a new directory. Then the component allows to create a 
new directory first, then to rename it as desired.
