Abstract
In one embodiment, non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions for implementing tagged management of stored items, wherein an embodiment can receive an input indicating the selection of a graphical representation of a file in the GUI of an operating system, and can also receive an input indicating the intent to attach a tag to the file. The system can perform an automatic search through the metadata of files associated with the user and the user account to find the set of files having the tag, responsive to the request to display the set of files. Having located the set of files, an operation can be performed to display the set of files having the requested tag, regardless of the storage location of the files.
