Importing subfolders
When you need to re-create the subfolder structure in a new folder similar to an existing folder, you can export the structure from the existing folder and import it into the new folder. Only the subfolder structure is transferred, not documents.
To import subfolders:
- Export the existing subfolder structure from the source folder as described in Exporting subfolders.
- Open the property page of the folder where you want to import the subfolders as described in Viewing and editing folder properties.
- In the ribbon, in the Import/Export group, click Import subfolders. The Import subfolders from file page appears.
- Click options or type values using the descriptions in the following table.
- Click Create sub-tree. The subfolders are created with the options that you specified.
