Virtual folders

Virtual folders can be used to structure recordings in larger recording sessions. Simply use drag-and-drop to move recordings into or out of folders. This helps you to organize recordings by project/test run or date. The following video shows the workflow with virtual folders:

Operations

  • Create: Create new virtual folders using the New virtual folder button
  • Rename: You can change the name of the folder via the context menu.
  • Move: Move files into or out of folders to reorganize.
  • Delete: Remove all files out of a folder to auto-destruct it.

Nesting is not supported

Persistence and export/import behavior

  • Virtual folder information nis stored as a parameter iside each recording/file element (FolderName).
  • If it does not belong to a virtual folder, the recording is shown in the root of the recordings panel
  • Because the folder information is stored with the file/recording element, it persists across restarts and reimports.
  • Virtual folders do not mirror or control the real Windows folder structure.

Ideas and Tips

  • Use meaningful folder names with prefixes like P01_, BenchA_, 2026-03.
  • Sort your files based on review status (raw, reviewed, edited, report-ready).
