The Dashboard contains three parts: My Folders, Recent Files, and Storage.

With Recent Files and Folders, you can:

• Create new transfers for Recent Files and Folders by selecting the root folder, folder, or file you want to transfer to start a new transfer for your recent files and folders. Then, choose the "Create new transfer" option. Your selected root folder, folder, or file, along with all its included files and folders (if applicable), will be added to the transfer. What's it! Straightforward.

• Download folder/file from your storage: select the root folder, folder, or file you want to have in your device and download it.

  • When you choose to download:

    • For folders: The root folder, along with all its included files and subfolders, will be saved on your device, and the content will be archived.

    • For files: The selected file will be saved directly to your device.

 

If you encounter a duplicate, you can replace the previously added folder or file with the current one.

• Delete folder/file - you can efficiently clear space in your storage by deleting files and folders.

 

Rest assured that the trashed root folder, folder, or file will not be accessible to other users with whom it was shared.

• Rename a root folder/file name, making it display with a new name.

• Copy to: you can create a copy of a folder or file in a selected location and copy it to:

  • Root folders: all the root folders added by the user.

  • Folders included in the root folder: Lists folders within the selected root folder.
    You can select the root folder where you want to copy the folder or file. Once you've selected a root folder, you will see all included folders of the selected root folder in the "Folders/Files included into root folder" section. The entire route to the currently selected folder will be displayed in the header. You can move to a specific folder by clicking on the needed folder name in the entire route to the selected folder.

  • You can also change the currently selected root folder. And add a new folder to the selected root folder

You cannot leave the "Folder name" field empty. If a folder with the same name already exists in the selected folder/file, you'll see a notification about it, but the option to rename it is available for you in this case.

• Move a root folder, subfolder, or individual file to another location. You can move the folder or file to:

  • Root folders;

  • Folders included in the root folder.
    You can choose the folder you want to move, the selected root folder. You can also change the selected root folder.

    To add a new folder to the selected root folder, "enter the name of the folder inside the Folder name field and confirm it.

 

Suppose the value is entered in the correct format. In that case, the newly added folder with the provided name will appear in the list of folders within the selected root folder.

My Folders

My Folders

In the "My Folders" section, you have various options to manage your files and folders efficiently:

Search for Files/Folders: Enter your search query in the search field to initiate the search process for specific files or folders in all your added folders.

Change View to "Grid": This changes the View to large icons called "Grid view." If you switch to the "Grid" view and then navigate to another page in the application and return to "My Folders," the picture will reset to "List."

Sort by Name, File Size, Last Modified By: You can sort the files by Name/ File Size/ Last Modified By.

Add new folder: You can easily create a new empty folder in the currently selected root folder or subfolder and enter a valid folder name.

• You can also add a new root folder to your list by dragging a folder from the folders or subfolders added to one of your root folders.

Create new folder

Add files/folders to existing folder: Would you like to add new files or folders to your existing folders? Here's how to do it: Start the process and choose the type of the upload object: "Upload files" or "Upload folders."
Then choose Upload Type:

• Select "Upload files" to upload individual files.

• Select "Upload folders" to upload entire folders.

Then Select Files/Folders you wish to add and complete the process. If the added files and folders exceed your available storage space, you will be notified: "You haven't enough storage space. Please clear storage or upgrade your storage space."

You can add files and folders to your root folder by dragging and dropping them onto the desired folder.

Suppose a file or folder with the same name exists in the selected folder or subfolder. In that case, you will see a notification about it and have an opportunity to rename it.

Trash

You won't be able to view the contents of trashed folders; only the top-level folder or file is displayed.

In this section, you have an opportunity to Restore or Permanently delete files/folders.

Restore or Permanently delete files/folders

Restoring a trashed file/folder removes it from the trashed items list and converts it to its original location. Restoring a file with the same name as an existing file in the destination folder appends an index (e.g., filename(1).txt) to avoid conflicts.

Permanently deleting a trashed file/folder removes it from the system entirely.

Files are automatically deleted if it is in the trash for 60 days without being restored.
