## Organize a library

A folder path helps organize files but does not grant client access. The studio must still use the proper gallery sharing workflow.

1. Open Storage → My Drive for private studio folders, or Client work for project media.
2. Create a folder in the current location; open it before creating a nested folder.
3. Use the item actions menu to rename or move an item when those controls are available.

## My Drive file actions

New folder creates a folder inside the current folder, so open the parent first when building nested folders. If a file seems missing after Move to folder, open the destination or clear search before uploading it again.

1. Open the current folder and choose Upload to add images, videos, PDFs or other supported files; wait for the new tile before leaving.
2. Open a file’s actions menu: Download retrieves it, Rename opens a name dialog, and Move to folder asks for a destination.
3. Enter the intended name and choose Save, or choose Cancel to discard the rename.
4. Use Delete only after checking the filename and the irreversible confirmation.

## Move several files

Drag and drop is a convenience where supported; the Move action is the safer keyboard and touch alternative. Client-created arrangements and studio arrangements can be separate, so confirm whose view you are editing.

1. Turn on multi-select or use each file checkbox in a file grid.
2. Select the intended photos or videos, choose Move, and select the destination folder.
3. Review the destination and confirm; then open it to check the files arrived.

## Use the folder toolbar and delete safely

Removing a folder alone can leave its files in All files. Submitted client photo selections are protected. A download dialog offers Download ZIP or, on supported browsers, Save to folder; Cancel download stops an in-progress browser export without removing stored originals.

1. Choose Select, then check individual files or folders; Check all visible files and Check all visible folders affect only the current visible set.
2. Choose Share selected for just the checked items, Share folder for the open folder, or Share all at the top level where offered.
3. Use Move to folder for checked files, or a folder’s Move folder action for that folder. Rename changes only its name.
4. Before Delete selected, read the file and folder count. The separate checkbox to also permanently delete files inside selected folders is consequential; leave it off when those files should remain in All files.
5. If a batch reports failures, use Retry remaining after reviewing the listed items.
