# Organise with Starred, tags, colours and Quick access

Mark your important files as starred, tag files to find them later, give folders a colour and pin what you use most to Quick access in the sidebar.

Four tools help you get back quickly to what matters: Starred, tags, folder colours and Quick access.

## Star a file or folder

Right-click the item and choose **Add to starred**, or press `Ctrl` + `Alt` + `S` (`Cmd` + `Option` + `S` on a Mac).

Your starred items are listed in **Starred** in the sidebar. To unstar an item, choose **Remove from starred**.

## Tag files

1. Right-click the file or folder and choose **Tags**.

2. Type a tag, up to 60 characters, and confirm.

Tags also appear in the item's details panel, under **Tags**, where you can add one directly in the **Add a tag…** field.

You can then filter search results by tag: see [Find files with search](https://drime.cloud/support/drive/find-files-with-search#filters).

## Give a file or folder a colour

Right-click the file or folder: under **COLOR**, at the bottom of the menu, click a colour. The **+** button lets you choose any other colour, and the first swatch removes the colour.

## Pin to Quick access

Right-click a file or folder and choose **Pin to Quick Access**. It appears under **Quick access** in the sidebar, where you can organise your own sections. You can also drag items onto **Quick access**.

To remove it, right-click it and choose **Unpin from Quick Access**.

## If it doesn't work

| What you see | What to do |
| --- | --- |
| A tag is refused | A tag can be up to 60 characters: shorten it. |
| There is no **COLOR** row | It is at the bottom of the right-click menu, in the web app on a computer. In the mobile app, open a folder's ⋮ menu and choose **Change color**. |
| You unpinned or unstarred something by mistake | Pin or star it again: the item itself is not touched. |
