# Archiving or Deactivating Folders

Folders can be marked as archived or inactive by a [Project Admin](/en/article/users-contacts-teams-contact-groups-roles-14mm92v/). The "Inactive" status is used when the folder is not currently needed. The "Archived" status is used for older data that needs to be backed up but is no longer actively used.

|| Documents in the folder can still be edited by teams with write permissions.

To do this, click in the "status" column of the desired folder.

Confirm by clicking **Change Status**.

The folder is now grayed out. Its status is now "Archived" or "Inactive."
