Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Can I select files across different folders using Multi-Select?

Currently, Multi-Select allows selection within a single folder. To manage files across different folders, perform actions within each folder separately.




Q: Are there any file types that cannot be selected using Multi-Select?

Multi-Select supports all file types available in Media Storage. However, certain actions may be restricted based on file type. For example, some file types may not support previewing.




Q: How does Multi-Select handle files with the same name during bulk actions?

If you move or download multiple files with the same name, the system will prompt you to rename or skip files to prevent overwriting.




Q: Is there a limit to the number of files I can select at once?

You can select up to 100 files at a time for bulk actions. Attempting to select more than this limit will prompt a notification.
