You can launch it via the shortcut available in the Dolphin app (Settings => Config => User Data => Open System File Manager)...
I forgot to mention, unfortunately I had already tried transferring from my PC via USB, but the file doesn't get copied, not even a single byte. Seems like the Android OS isn't even allowing access to the directory via USB. Access via Dolphin also is a failed option, I get the error "Sorry, Dolphin couldn't find the system file manager on your device". Sony switched from using their own File Manger app to Google's "Files by Google", stupid decision on them! Anyways, opening the Google File Manager app itself, navigating to Internal Storage>Android>Data shows nothing, the folder is hidden even within the "Files by Google" app! This is ridiculous! For a $1,800 Phone, it shouldn't be such a pain to use!
