Folders

Organize games with regular folders and automatic smart folders.

Folders

Regular folders contain games you choose. Smart folders fill themselves using a rule.

Create a Folder

  1. Open Start → New → New Folder.
  2. Enter a name.
  3. Choose its appearance and save it.

A folder can use a color or built-in symbol. Platform icons are available too. Custom artwork may replace the icon and hero image. A separate logo may also be added.

Add or Remove Games

Use Start → Edit Grid to move games into a regular folder. To remove one, open the folder and choose Y → Remove from Folder.

Deleting a folder returns its games to Home.

Smart Folders

Choose a Smart Folder type while creating or editing a folder.
