Tuesday evening, August 4th 2020, folder management will be moved to myapps.uidaho.edu. Owners of folders will now be able to see all the individuals who have access and be able to remove and add access following these instructions. Owners still need to manage access to folders on the S: drive using help.uidaho.edu as before.
