I have a string that is the path of a file, something like "C:\folder\file.png", and i want to remove everything but the file name "file.png"
PS: im getting the file path using the "Explorer" extension, and it only returns the full file path, but i want only the file name

Do you know how long the filename will be? If you do, you can use the "Get right sub-string" function under the special object. It makes this: Right$(>Enter string<, >Enter number of characters< ) Pretty self explanatory.
If you don't know how long the filename will be and you don't know what the file will be called, you'll probably need to use a string parser and set "/" as a delimiter. Have you ever used one of those before?

The easiest way is using the Quick Token Extension.
eg:
GetToken$( "Quick Token Object", "C:/folder/file.png", "/\", GetNumberToken( "Quick Token Object", "C:/folder/file.png", "/\")-1)
