With PowerFolder users are able to create Groups for simplified permission management and folder sharing.

As a user, you have the possibility to create groups with users who will have access to the same folders.
This function helps you to divide many files into user groups.
It is generally recommended to divide your folders or rights structure into groups only when you have 8 or more users. To create a group open the user account overview and switch to the Groups tab.

Creating groups

Press the plus button  there to open the group creation dialog.

First you need to give the group a name and optionally a description.
In the folder tab you can create folders that will be shared with the group. Alternatively, you can use existing folders.

On the Members tab you can add existing user accounts to the group.
Additionally, you can give administrative permission to another user so that they can also add or delete new folders and members of the group.

Editing groups

After you press Save, the group will appear in the list.
Now you can press on the group name to further edit the group.
Now that the group exists, you can also store an avatar to easily distinguish which group it is or for what purpose it was created.

Assigning Folder

Assign folders or the users can also do that.

Members

Members can be added here. (a new user cannot be created)
