This guide explains how to save directory locations, quickly navigate between them using keyboard shortcuts, and manage your saved folder paths within the 7-Zip interface.
How to Save a Folder Path

How to Access Bookmarked Paths
Once a directory is saved, you can jump to it instantly using two methods:
