If we move files/folders on Windows pc, do the tags stay on them or not?

Question

Where are the tags kept in  Filezo ? If files move do the tags stay on them or not? Do the tags move to and from a non local drive, like a network on Windows?

Answer 1

Tags in   Filezo   are saved as part of NTFS file system. So if you simply copy files/folders from one NTFS drive to another NTFS drive directly then all the tags will be retained. After copying, just install   Filezo   and it will restore all the tags back even if you have copied on another drive on inside another folder.

If you have your tagged files on a file system such as FAT32 also, you can simply copy everything as it is to another computer.   Filezo   will restore all the tags back. On Non-NTFS file syste,   Filezo   stores the tags differently. But they are still restorable.

The less recommended option is that after you have transferred your files and folders to another system, you copy   Filezo  's data file also to another PC/laptop. But in this case, you must ensure that the folder structure and drive letters are exactly same as the previous system.

To know where   Filezo   stores its data, go to Settings in   Filezo   and click on the Advanced tab.
