Can't see folders in the Group files list

Hi. Very simple question, how do you see folders in the Groups file list? If I go to 'Browse the Library' I can create a folder, but on coming back to the Files list that folder is not visible. Editing the view at the Library has no effect.

 

Thanks

  • AFAIK this is the intended behavior: the new File experience is in practice a flat list of recent files.

    If you want to have a structured view of the connected Sharepoint doclib you have to choose "Browse the Library'.

        Dislike this though. Would like to see maybe a choice. Lots of teams/groups still live and breathe in folders. SharePoint people have fought this battle for years, (folders versus metadata). This new Files view says screw both you guys, we wont use either!
