A {{xref|system folder}} is a special folder in your inventory which has several unique attributes:
{{#widget:Redirect|url=/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Advanced-inventory-management/ta-p/1376385#Section_.1}}
 
* '''System folders can't be moved.''' They always reside in the top-level of your inventory (shown in the {{win|My Inventory}} tab of the '''My Inventory''' sidebar). You can't delete them.
* '''System folders can't be modified.''' You can't rename or edit any other properties. Like regular folders, you can put items ''inside'' of them.
* '''Creating inventory items can automatically sort them into an appropriate system folder.''' For example, in the '''My Inventory''' sidebar, if you choose '''Create''' > '''New Notecard''' menu, the notecard appears in the Notecards system folder.
* '''System folders appear on top of all other folders, with one exception.''' In the '''My Inventory''' sidebar, you can uncheck '''Sort''' > '''System Folders To Top''' menu, which lets other top-level folders you've created get mixed in by sort order.
 
In addition:
 
* '''The Lost And Found and Trash folders are specifically for stuff you might throw away.''' You can right-click either folder and choose '''Empty Lost And Found''' or '''Empty Trash''', respectively, to ''permanently'' delete everything inside the folder.
** Lost And Found contains items that have been returned to you — for example, if you left a car on a parcel with {{xref|autoreturn}} on and it got sent back — so you may want to sort it out first.
* '''The Current Outfit and My Outfits folders are specifically about your avatar's appearance.'''
** Current Outfit has links to everything you're wearing, and actually shows the same stuff as {{winlink|My Appearance - Wearing}}.
** My Outfits contains individual folders, each one of them with a coat hanger icon ({{InvIcon_LookFolderClosed}}) and usually containing a complete avatar look. My Outfits' folders ''can'' contain original items if you intentionally moved them in here, but generally, they'll contain links.

In earlier Viewer versions, system folders had special icons. Now, with the exception of individual outfit folders, they don't.
