You can't create folders in file exchange. With your group, decide how you want to name files so that they are easier to locate in a long list.
Add a file to the file exchange
Group Tools > File Exchange > Add File
Add a name for file you want to upload. Browse for the file and submit.
You can also delete any file if you wish. On the File Exchange page, select Delete in the file's menu. But it would be good to keep all the files for any future reference.
