File Manager for ASP.NET Web Forms - How to display virtual names of folders and files

This example demonstrates how to display virtual names for folders and files in the File Manager control. Users can access and manage folders and files by these virtual names.

This example implements a custom file system provider that transforms actual names of files and folders to virtual names and vice versa. The foldersToShow variable stores actual and virtual folder names. The filesToShow variable stores actual and virtual file names. Instead of variables, you can use another custom storage (for instance, a database).
