The total number of documents and folders which can be stored and displayed on each folder hierarchy in an Advanced Space is 1,000. Files or folders exceeding this value are not displayed. However, when you display the content of a folder in an Advanced Space that you have registered as a Personal Library by using Desktop, the maximum number of items to be displayed may be smaller than 1,000 because there have been other files or folders in the space (hereafter referred to as "files/folders for Desktop"), which are used by Desktop for document management related operations and are hidden on the Desktop display.
The following types of files/folders for Desktop are generated or saved in folder in an Advanced Space. You can display or confirm these files from Windows Explorer.
Library management file (file extension: *.iwu)
This file contains the library management information. It is generated and saved in the directory immediately under the library.
Folder management file (file extension: *.iwn)
This file contains the folder management information. It is generated and saved for each folder.
