Creating a Directory with the File Manager

The File Manager allows users to create directories, rename and delete selected files or directories, and upload and download selected files.

1. In the File Manager, select the directory in the left pane under which you want to create a folder.
2. Type the name you want for the new folder in the New text box.
3. Click Create Folder.
   The new directory is created in the SessionID (or UserName) path under the directory you selected in Step 1. No other application user can use the Web Forms File Manager to see the new directory. When an application user leaves the current session, the SessionID directory and any files uploaded to it are removed. (If an application user is logged in with a permanent user account, the UserName directory and its contents are not removed.)

   Note: You can rename a directory by selecting it in the left pane, entering a new name in the New text box, and clicking Rename Folder. You delete a directory by selecting it in the left pane and clicking Delete Folder.

   You cannot rename or delete a directory if it was not created in the current Web Forms session. The Rename Folder and Delete Folder buttons are disabled when a directory under the Common path of the virtual file directory is selected in the left pane of the File Manager.

   Users can close the File Manager and return to the current Web Forms window by clicking the close (x) button at the upper right corner of the manager frame.
