Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The information processing device may determine a file type of a send file which is a file to be sent to the storage device and to be stored in the storage device. The information processing device may acquire a plurality of stored tag information from the storage device. The stored tag information may be tag information associated with a stored file which is a file stored in the storage device. The information processing device may cause a display unit to display one or more stored tag information among the acquired plurality of stored tag information. The information processing device may store, in association with the send file, at least one selected tag information into the storage device. The information processing device may cause the display unit to display a first group of stored tag information in preference to a second group of stored tag information.
