How to organize links into folders

Learn how to use folders to easily organize and categorize your links in a convenient way.

In this article:

Desktop.com is using folders to categorize your links in a convenient way. You should have at least one link to start categorizing it into folders
This option is available if you enabled the Organize&Search feature package

Let's create a new folder before starting categorizing the links:

1) Open the Desktop.com app  

2) Select a desktop -> navigate to the Links

3) If you enabled Organize&Search + Communiction feature packages, first navigate to the Desktops -> select a desktop.

4) Click the Add folder button inside the Links section

5) Alternatively (if you do not have links added to your desktop), click the +Add content button -> select Create links folder in the drop-down menu

6) Enter the folder's name -> click the Create button

7) You can add subfolders and, therefore, create additional five layers of link folders. To start creating subfolders, click the folder

8) Click the Add folder button inside this folder. Enter the folder's name -> click the Create button

9) If you need to go back to the main folder, click the Home button

How to categorize links into folders:

1) Right-click on the link (alternatively, you can click the 3 dots button) ->select Move to option in the drop-down menu. Then you can either select from the existing folders or create a new one.

Folders can be conveniently dragged-and-dropped across desktops
