Create instant albums using folder names

You can automatically create an instant album with the same name as a folder on your hard disk. Creating instant albums this way is useful
when you’ve used descriptive folder names to organize the media files on your hard disk. It also helps to quickly add your managed media files
with those same folder names.

1. In the Media view, choose the folder from My Folders list in the Albums panel.

2. In the folder tree/managed folder on the left, select the folder containing the media files you want to tag. Thumbnails of the managed

media files in that folder appear in the Media grid.

3. Right-click the folder and select Create An Instant Album.
