# Fileset Tools

Fileset Tools are quick actions for common Fileset management tasks: duplicate a Fileset, generate a Fileset report, review or create associations when Associations are visible, create or add to Deployments, rename, comment, delete, move, open properties, or set administrator permissions. Select the *Tools* icon in the main toolbar or right-click a Fileset to open the menu.

<p class="callout info">The Tools menu is context-sensitive. Options can vary by the selected item, administrator permissions, and FileWave Central feature visibility. If Associations are hidden in Central, *Create Association(s)...* may not appear; use *Create Deployment...* or *Add to Deployment...* for the deployment-centered workflow.</p>

- ***Duplicate*** – Create a copy of a fully configured Fileset. FileWave adds the suffix "copy." Use this when different administrators need separate deployment options, or when VPP tokens require separate licenses for the same content.
- ***Fileset Report*** – Open a report for the selected Fileset.
- ***Show all Associations of this Fileset*** – Open the **Associations** pane so you can view the Fileset and its assigned clients.
- ***Create Association(s)...*** – Open a searchable list of clients that you can associate with the Fileset. This option may be hidden when FileWave Central is configured to hide Associations; new FileWave instances commonly hide Associations by default as deployments become the preferred workflow.
- ***Create Deployment...*** – Start a new Deployment using the selected Fileset.
- ***Add to Deployment...*** – Add the selected Fileset to an existing Deployment.
- ***Rename*** – Change the Fileset name after creation.
- ***Comment*** – Add a comment that appears in the Fileset view to help track purpose, ownership, or rollout notes.
- ***Delete*** – Delete the selected Fileset from the database.
- ***Move To...*** – Move the selected Fileset to another Fileset Group.
- ***Properties*** – Open the selected Fileset's properties.
- ***Set Permissions...*** – Set administrator access for a specific Fileset or Fileset Group.
