I use to clear the temp directory before starting the presentation just in case it got cached. This is a workaround and it becomes more technical but it can be a solution. One can try to have cache cleared at computer startup or at a certain time intervals. Thanks for the note. Unfortunately it’s true for some time now.

This "limitation" has a reason: It's relaxing because it limits chaos" Ha! For very simple categorization = Yes, but for a work project of any size it is too simplistic and obviously not enough. Let the users decide what levels they need!!! XYplorer File Manager says:

I have been asking the same question and spent days (years actually) searching and downloading all sorts of File Managers on the market - but not a single one can do what you just described! They all either super expensive industrial non-userfrendly monsters, taking you time, or non-working cheap rubbish. The software you described needed for millions of people - yet it does not exist as I understand... ANYONE OUT THERE - DEVELOP IT PLEASE!! Or tell us where to get it! Exactly!

I have been using a file manager called XYplorer and recently it added the tagging feature you mention here. The file manager is extremely fast in finding files and now the tagging feature is a great addition. Check it out yourselves. Link: http://www.xyplorer.com/release_9.90.htm Hi,

I'm developing a program Reggata, and it may be interested for you. https://github.com/vlkv/reggata It's main idea is "delicious for files" (but not the only one). It would be great to receive your feedback about my project. Thank you. Hi!

I had a .doc and saved it out in Word as a .docx and it still worked, so I didn't need to install OpenOffice to extract the files. Thanks for this tip!
