Multiman

Multiman is a file manager and backup manager primarily designed for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) console. It allows users to manage files on the PS3's internal hard drive and external USB storage devices, create backups of PS3 games, and launch those backups without the need for the original game discs. It gained popularity within the PS3 homebrew community due to its features that bypassed Sony's copy protection measures and enabled users to play games from sources other than physical media.

Multiman includes features like a graphical user interface (GUI) for navigating file systems, support for various file formats, and options for managing game data. It's often used in conjunction with custom firmware (CFW) or other homebrew software installed on the PS3, which allows users to execute unsigned code and access functionalities not normally available on the official PS3 system software.

Due to its use in circumventing copyright protection, Multiman's distribution and use have been controversial, leading to legal challenges and restrictions on its availability. While it continues to be used within certain segments of the PS3 homebrew community, its use may be considered illegal in some jurisdictions depending on local copyright laws and the user's intentions. The development of Multiman has also slowed significantly in recent years.
