3. Choose Working Folder

Select the specific folder that you want to work with. I will select this FileForge test folder, then select Open, and confirm changes by selecting Apply Changes.

4. Backup Work Prompt

Anytime you apply changes to a working folder, the system will ask if you want to perform work on a backup, which will copy your existing folder. Since I am working with a test folder, I will choose to work on this folder. We advise most users to perform work on a backup to ensure that you always have an original copy.
