The Watch Folder workspace is divided into three areas with quick navigation between the different watches and their configuration.
The main menu is located to the top just above the toolbar containing all the quick buttons.
Below the main menu is the area dedicated to the list with all configured watches, their Status, Latest Activity, Processed flag, Errors, etc.
Note: Double clicking on any of the categories in the list will sort the existing Watch folders. For example, double clicking on "Watch Folders" will sort them alphabetically in descending or ascending order.
