    Create new folders in the All apps list

    When I select the All apps tab from the start button I see a list of all of the apps/programs that I have available.

    I currently have a folder (Western Digital) that has 3 programs listed. These 3 are for a device "net drive" and I would like to create a sub folder named "net drive" and put those 3 programs in that folder and then add a "Duo" folder and add it's programs
    to that folder so that in effect I have a tree like below:

    • Western Digital
      • Net Drive
        • 1 program
        • 2 program
        • 3 program
      • Duo
        • 1 program
        • 2 program
        • 3 program
    Is this possible?

    Is there a way to find out which program created which files in folders like app data or...

    Folder locked and dissapeared after unlock

    Well here's something i found on this:

    Lost my files in Folder Lock

    But it doesn't work here , i don't have that folder.

    Can somebody help me searching for a solution , tnx.

    EDIT:

    I did that and that's when the folder just disappeared but the data is still there, the program is very confusing about restoring files , it says that "files should become unlocked automatically" ... so where the heck are manual unlocking instructions.

    It's not an encrypt , it's just a password lock , so data is all open. The problem is, i would get like 225 GB of individual files off the HDD recovery , i just want the harder way of accessing the folder but getting the folder structure , where can i find the time to SORT 220 GB of data omg.
