# Project files

A new Flood Modeller project file is started by default on opening the software. This categorises the multiple [File types within a project](/v1/docs/file-types-within-a-project) used for model data.

Flood Modeller provides functionality to  [Start new, load and save projects](/v1/docs/how-to-start-new-load-and-save-projects).

To assist with organisation, you can also [Add and remove files  and  subfolders](/v1/docs/how-to-add-and-remove-project-files-and-subfolders) within your projects.

For sending projects to colleagues or clients, you can [Export projects](/v1/docs/how-to-export-projects) and [Save project files as relative paths](/v1/docs/how-to-save-project-files-as-relative-paths).

Functionality is also provided to [Repair projects referencing old files](/v1/docs/how-to-repair-projects-referencing-old-files) if you are struggling to open a project.
