Here's the lowdown: Use Map Drive to browse and manage your Online File Folder files and folders through Windows Explorer without logging in to the Web interface.

You install and set up Map Drive to use Windows Explorer's Map Network Drive feature to assign a drive letter to your Online File Folder account. For example, you can assign the letter Z to your Online File Folder account. After setting up your drive, browse and manage your Online File Folder files and folders just as you browse and manage your files and folders in your My Documents folder.

When you browse to the drive you created with Map Drive, you can use Windows Explorer's file management features to interact with your Online File Folder account. For example, you can do the following:

  • Open and edit files, and then save them to their original location in your Online File Folder account.
  • Rename files.
  • Create new files and folders.
  • Move or copy files to and from your Online File Folder account.
