Working with files and folders

In the File Browser, you can manage your image files by adding, deleting, and moving them. You can also add folders to the Favorite Folders list for quick access to your most frequently used folders.
The Folder palette is where you can see the folder hierarchy of the files displayed in the File Browser.
Creating new folders
Choose File > New Folder. Type a name, and press Enter (Windows) or Return (Mac OS).
Adding a folder to Favorites
Select a folder, and then choose File > Add Folder to Favorites. To remove a folder from Favorites, choose File > Remove Folder from Favorites.
Dragging files into the File Browser
Select a file on your desktop, or in another application. Drag and drop the file into the File Browser window.
Dragging and dropping a file onto the Preview palette or the main window moves or copies the file. To view the contents of a folder, drag and drop a file or a folder on to the Preview, Metadata, or Keywords palette.
