About Manage Files
The Manage Files tool is a file management system for your course. You can use this tool to organize and upload files associated with your course offering. We recommend that you organize your files into folders, creating a folder for each module of content. The functions you can perform in Manage Files can be divided into the following two categories:
- Organizing and managing files and folders Perform basic tasks such as creating, editing, deleting, uploading, moving files and folders, and zipping and unzipping files.
- Creating topics from your files Create topics using files from your course content structure.
![Manage Files is comprised of six interface elements: the breadcrumb list, folder bar, action bar, folder tree, file grid, and context menu.](../../graphics/screenshots/filemanagement_userinterface.png)
