I can guess, but I want to ask you: what do you mean by "open folder"? I'm not joking: there is no such thing per se, and it might imply different things.

I agreed. Sometimes without knowing the exact, or the most suitable word, it is quite difficult to find the exact answer looking for. Even to search on Google you had to have a better understanding about what you are looking for. :)
