Where on Earth is the File Explorer Window in Android Studio

Question

Guys at JetBrains must love to hide the most common tools. Why can't the Android Studio be at least as good as the old eclipse plugin.

Just where on Earth did the file explorer window go?

I've already read:

But this is all I can get:

enter image description here

Where is the file explorer tab supposed to be found? When I clicked the Android Device Monitor button it said it was already shown. But now it gives me a "Failed to create the Java VM" error that disconnects the device, and a few seconds later it reconnects again.

Using Android Studio v1.1.0

Solved thanks to @Lipi's answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/25159856.

The .ini file was trying to give the monitor too much memory, and reducing it solved the issue. That file is in the Android SDK folder, it's not inside AS.

Android Studio does not currently show the file explorer as a tab in the IDE, it just uses the SDK's and opens it in a separate window.
