Show HN: WinCse – Integrating AWS S3 with Windows Explorer Official Release

1 point

a year ago

I previously introduced a demo version of this software, which received positive feedback. The increasing number of GitHub stars has motivated me to continue development.

With all planned features now fully implemented, I’m excited to introduce the official release.

The demo version was read-only and fairly basic, but I’ve completely redesigned it. The key improvements include:

- Designed for future scalability, with separate DLLs implemented for each cloud storage service. - Support for encrypted storage of authentication information. - Implementation of file and directory creation/deletion functions. - Saving file timestamps as S3 object metadata. - Improved responsiveness of Explorer operations by switching to a sequential file input method. - Support for multipart uploads with automatic selection based on file size. - Configuration file allows adjustments to the number of object operation threads and transfer sizes.

I have also tested the software with several synchronization tools like FreeFileSync. Since it’s mounted as a filesystem via WinFsp, commands like XCOPY work seamlessly.

If you encounter any bugs while using the software, I would greatly appreciate it if you could report reproducible issues on GitHub. I also welcome suggestions for improvements, and I will consider implementing them where possible.
