 Under most circumstances, the best approach is to simply move your DATs around to match the way you want your ROMs organized. If the files are already scanned, RomVault will move the files in the most performant way possible using raw copy and ZipMove actions. See the [[scanning_fixing_levels|Scanning and Fixing Levels]] page for additional information about when these actions are used during a fix. Under most circumstances, the best approach is to simply move your DATs around to match the way you want your ROMs organized.

 +==== How can I have RomVault ignore an entire directory? ====
 +Only directories with a DAT will display in the tree. If your preferred organization setup requires ignoring a directory in your RomRoot, then you can use a placeholder DAT to make that directory appear in the tree which you can deselect or lock. The placeholder DAT only needs to contain this: <?xml version=“1.0”?><datafile/>

 +==== What archive type should I use? ====
