When to use a folder structure diagram

  • Tidy files

    Plan your folders before you save anything, so every file has an obvious place.

  • Sorting

    Sort documents into a few big folders with smaller ones inside, like school, photos and money.

  • With a team

    Agree one folder layout for a shared drive, so everyone saves things in the same place.
