File Share Tab
The File Share tab is the primary interface to access a File Share.
The File Share tab interface contains four vertical sections: Folders; Files; (File) Size; and Date.
A tree organizes all Folders within the share. To navigate more complex trees, click the arrow next to the folder name to expand and display available subfolders. Clicking any of the Folders displays the folder contents in the Files section.
Selecting a File displays the file size and the file creation date automatically. To open any Folder or File, click the Open button or double-click the desired Folder or File.
Empty file shares display No Results Found.
