need file explorer on the device itself so that I can organise and find books easily.

I am having trouble rooting as well. Looks like I am stuck both ends.

Why not use the search function on the reader itself? It works well. Then organize them into collections for easier sorting. No rooting or other programs required.

It takes time to do it at first if you have 100's of books on the device but then just do it for each book you add. Overall though it doesn't take that long. I've had to do it twice with 300 - 400 books because of the stupid sync thing deleting my books. I was mad but I got it done relatively quickly.

I want to be able to organise my books into folders on Windows, then transfer them over to the reader, and then be able to explorer the folders on the reader. It is easier to organise and sorting books into various categories. The reader should just be a end device for reading.

But if you want them sorted a specific way, that's what you have to do.
