Tagging for Windows

Hierarchical folder structures for storing files is the way to go. However if you need files for a specific purpose, like a project, a topic, a proposal, or a combination of arguments, like audit AND department OR position, it is an almost impossible task to do that in one go. It takes a lot of time and effort. Since large numbers of computer files define our everyday lives, we came up with the idea to introduce a tagging software solution, where you had to be able, especially when working with large number of files, to locate your files as quickly and easily as possible. Some special retrieval tools handle only a small set of file types. Such systems — although very popular in the form of music or photo management software — are not a general solution to the underlying shortcomings of current file browsing tools. Some features provided in specialised management tools would be of great help for other file types. We worked on a simply solution that covers this all and came up with one function, integrated in the Windows File Explorer: tagging. With Tagging for Windows you can create a list of tags and or multiple lists. Create hierarchical structures of tags, as a virtual access path to your files. With the possibility to tag tags it is possible to create a network approach for retrieving the files you need.
