Briefcase may refer to any of the following:
1. Generally, a briefcase is a container to hold papers, folders, and a laptop. See our laptop bag page for further information and related information.
2. In Microsoft Windows, My Briefcase or Briefcase is a special folder that allows the user to copy and synchronize copies of files between multiple computers. For example, if you have a desktop and a laptop computer that share the same files, the Briefcase can store and synchronize the files between computers. The picture shows the original My Briefcase icon used in Windows 95. The Briefcase feature was available in Windows 95, 98, XP, Vista, 2000, and 7.
Note
The Briefcase feature is no longer supported in Windows 8, 10, and 11.
