# Open a favourite

Go straight into a starred folder, or download a starred file, from the Favorites list.

What happens when you select a row depends on what's on it. A folder opens in place, with its contents in front of you. A file downloads to your computer, the same as it would from its own folder.

## Open a starred folder

- Go to **Favorites**.
- Select the folder's row. The folder opens, and everything you can do in a folder, you can do here.

  ![The Engineering Workshop folder, opened from Favorites. The tab bar still carries a Favorites tab. The path at the top reads My Folders, then Engineering Workshop. Below it the folder's contents: a Service Reports subfolder, then Workshop Job Log - September 2026.xlsx, Pump Skid GA Drawing - PS-220.png, Hydraulic Hose Crimp Specification - R2AT.pdf and Motor Rewind Test Sheet - Template.xlsx, each uploaded by Graham Whitfield.](https://www.sorviai.com/help/nest/favorites/favorite-opened-folder.png)

> **Note:**

> **A team folder opened from here starts its path at My Folders**
>
> Engineering Workshop is a team folder, but opened from Favorites its path reads **My Folders**, and the **Manage** button for members and roles is missing. The files inside are the same. To add or remove members, go to **Team Folders** and open the folder from there.

## Download a starred file

Select the file's row, or the download arrow at its right-hand end. Either one saves a copy to wherever your browser keeps downloads, and moves the file to the top of your **Recent Files**.

A starred web link is the exception. Favorites shows it like a file, download arrow included, but there's nothing behind it to download, so selecting it here does nothing. Open a link from its folder or from **Recent Files**, where selecting it takes you to the page.
