Lets say you want to design a digital resistance measurement bridge then usually the respective file folder on my pc would fill with relevant papers/manuals/appnotes, simulations, CAD-schematics/layouts, text documents for notes/change logs and pictures of scope traces or pcbs during the design.
How is that managed by someone that doesnt understand/use file structures?
Do they add tags for everything to make a searchfeature actually usable?

You'll have to install an "app" for that 8)

I would guess that most companies have some guidelines for
storage, and that this includes some filing/directory structure.

When you work on just one or two projects, you have it as recently used files
No need for complicated organization

"Hey, we need a new revision for that pcb you did a year ago" "Sure thing, lets me just search a few hours for files that roughly fit the design date"

Bah. Kids these days are also not familiar with the idea of "real-time recording", that is to say that back then if you wanted a 3 minute song, it took 3 minutes to record it to your tape or whatever.
