Did you know that Google now lets our files live in more than one folder in Google Drive? That’s right, you can now select a file and add it to as many of your folders as you would like. The best part is, this feature works for any of the files in your “My Drive “as well as any files in “Shared with me”.  This is another example of how Google is continuing to improve the organization features of Google Drive.

Step 1: Locate a single file in either “My Drive” or “Shared with me” and then double click that file to open it in a new tab.
