Total Commander
I've started recommending Amaze, it's free, open source, and easy to use.
Although I still use Solid Explorer for myself, but only because I've paid for it and know how it works.
Both have SMB support, since copying files to and from my server is pretty much my only need for a file manager.
I'm assuming it's a fresh install, so nothing of value was lost if the restore failed. But also I've heard attempting to delete things in
/sys
and/dev
can brick your computer. So it's not a great idea.
