Users often use Windows to access folders and libraries. Folder refinement settings can better manage files. The library is like a user-friendly indexing function that allows users to directly access folders and files on any disk location.
Enter the Win8 system desktop, click the folder icon in the lower left corner to open the Explorer interface, select the "Options" on the right side (as shown below).

Entering the folder settings
and then popping up the dialog box is the folder option we often see on Windows systems.
