# File Browser

The file browser supports [Python's glob syntax](https://docs.python.org/3/library/glob.html) for Unix style pathname pattern expansion.

## Search and Bookmarks

In v4.5+, the file browser allows for bookmarking directories for common access. To create a bookmark, right click on a directory and select 'Bookmark path' from the context menu that displays. Alternatively, click the bookmark button within the control bar to bookmark the current directory. Each bookmark can have a unique title, description and colour. Bookmarks are scoped to a specific CryoSPARC user account.

You can search and navigate to bookmarked directories and project directories from the sidebar.
