English term or phrase: folder/portfolio
"Have you sat and stared at the folders of your portfolio in the hope of remembering where the Christmas letter, the report from the Board meeting or photos from your birthday last year have disappeared to now?"

(text om mjukvara för sorteringssystem)

Min fråga är vad skillnaden är mellan en "folder" och "portfolio". Jag trodde detta var olika namn för samma sak, alltså mapp, folder eller portfölj. Har jag fel?

agree  LindaMcM: Visst stämmer det men "...har du suttit och stirrat på din portfölj..." tycker jag låter konstigt. Kanske 'bildskärm' som en liten 'friare' översättning...?// Well, ok, if Microsoft says so I guess the term should be used ;-)

  -> Microsoft has, in their omniscient benevolence, decided that it is to be called "portfölj" in Swedish.
