Business extras

If one of your saved search folders becomes too large, you can reorganise the results into groups or reorganise by metatags, displaying the content for sub-groups separately.

Another useful small-business feature is Windows Shadow Copy. This feature creates point-in-time copies of files as you work so that you can quickly and easily retrieve versions of a document you may have accidentally deleted. Shadow Copy creates copies on a scheduled basis of all files that have changed. Since only incremental changes are saved, minimal disk space is required. It works on single files as well as whole folders. When restoring a file, all previous versions that are different than the live copy on the disk are shown. When accessing a previous version of a folder, users can browse the folder hierarchy to see how it appeared at a previous point in time.
