This is in file explorer

According to file explorer I am at the root. So How can I see what's on file explorer via droidexplorer or via versa?

The former shows the root file system – the latter what MTP provides (usually the internal or external SD card). Different directories/places, hence of course it shows different sets of folders :)

  • According to file explorer your at the root of that storage – not necessarily at the root of the entire file system on your device. MTP doesn't serve the entire file system, but "shared storage" (internal/external SD card) only, which is why, if you have both internal and external SD, you'll usually find 2 entries for your device. – Izzy♦ Mar 7 '16 at 7:33
