Tag it! Forms, WPF, ASP.NET, what?!
The question makes no sense unless you explain what are the object to be selected and what is the required result of selection -- ability to work with clipboard, control of something, etc...

A "selection feature" on Windows Explorer already exist. You cannot add it once again, no matter how hard you try. :-).

If you mean to create your own File Manager, there is a slightly different reason why you cannot implement a selection feature. You will almost inevitably use controls like TreeView, ListView or ListBox. Again, no luck! They all have selection feature already implemented. Only if you want to implement your own controls you could implement selection. I see no sense in giving you any advice: by the moment you implement everything else and when it comes to selection, you will gain so much experience that you most likely won't ask such question here at CodeProject. Also, the answer depends on what library you want to use — System.Windows.Forms, WPF or something else. (Next time, tag your Question in full.)

So, what can you do? If you really want to develop some selection feature, develop some other kind of software, vector or pixel graphics, for example; then you will really need to implement such feature. :-)
