What is FileJacket?

FileJacket is the personal desktop file organizer that Windows Explorer always aspired to be.  To start a Project, simply give it a name and FileJacket creates a “top level” folder for it where all files and links will be stored.

Start by dragging existing files onto the Project tree.  FileJacket adds a link for each file (does NOT move the file or copy it, just creates a shortcut to it).

You can create categories within a project, then drag and drop the files into the category where they belong.  Copy Outlook messages and attachments as independent files (outside of Outlook) with a single click.  Got a screenshot to save?  Copy it to the clipboard and with just one more click, create a linked image file.

You can add notes to each file so you don’t even have to open it to know if it’s the file you’re looking for.  Each item is marked with the file type (Word, Excel, PDF, etc.) and you can even color-code the project tree based on the file type.

Did you know that the general recommendation for protecting your data is to have three backups of everything?  Three:  one local, one off-computer (flash drive or portable hard drive), and one off-site. 

FileJacket organizes your projects automatically into a single top-level folder that can be backed up with just one click.  Yes, thanks for asking:  FileJacket has a built-in backup utility… let’s make THAT task easy too!  If you have OneDrive or Google Drive, you can point your backup to that folder on your computer and instantly sync the data to the cloud.

FileJacket is a simple Windows desktop tool that runs on any Windows 10 or 11 system and is installed in your “Documents” folder.  Since typically everyone has access to copy files to their “Documents” folder, installing FileJacket does NOT require admin access to install it.  Its single executable file (FileJacket.exe) can even be run from a flash drive.
