I am using the file explorer to manage images inside of a folder, much like the demo application, with file preview. There are no sub-folders. 

My folder that contain images are named after the record id. This is not a good name for the top level folder for the customer to see. I would like for the root folder to always read "Images". Is it possible to have the root folder named something other than what is actually on the server, for the GUI portion only?

Thanks.

Hi Jason,

You can apply folder name masking by implementing a custom filebrowser content provider using a mapping to link virtual folder name to actual folder name. Please review the following KB article for an example of this approach:
Use RadFileExplorer with physical and shared folder's paths
