Creating folders and subfolders in Microsoft Outlook helps keep your inbox organized, making it easier to locate specific emails when needed. Here’s how to create them.
Creating a Folder in Outlook
Open Outlook and go to the Folder Pane on the left side of the screen, where your email folders (like Inbox, Sent Items, Drafts) are located.
Right-click on the email account or an existing folder where you want to create a new folder (such as your main Inbox).
Select New Folder from the context menu.
A text box will appear where you can type the name of your new folder (e.g., "Project X").
Press Enter to create the folder. It will now appear in the Folder Pane.
Creating a Subfolder in Outlook
Right-click on an existing folder (e.g., Inbox or another folder you’ve created) where you want to add a subfolder.
Choose New Folder from the context menu.
Type the name of the subfolder and press Enter. The subfolder will appear nested under the selected parent folder.
Using Folders to Organize Emails
You can now drag and drop emails into these folders or set up rules in Outlook to automatically sort emails into specific folders based on sender, subject, or keywords. This helps streamline your inbox and keeps important messages easy to find.
