Scenario: SharePoint document library download folder
Generally SharePoint is used for Content & Document Management System. If it is more of Document Management System, users will upload and download files and documents quite often to/from document library or list.
Downloading a single document or file is straight forward, by clicking on the file. But there is no straight way to download folder from SharePoint document library. And downloading one by one file from a library is hectic if it has has more number of files (say 100s).
However a folder with all the files can be downloaded easily by following the below steps:
1. Go to the document library or list.
2. Open Explorer View of the respective document library.
3. Drag & Drop the folder from library to local drive.
OR
Select the folder -> right click -> copy, then paste it on the local drive.
