# PairedFolder

The **PairedFolder** object is returned by the [**FSUtil**](https://chaoses-ib.gitbook.io/directory-opus/manual/reference/scripting_reference/scripting_objects/fsutil)**.GetFolderPair** method when you query for a folder's [pair](https://chaoses-ib.gitbook.io/directory-opus/manual/preferences/preferences_categories/frequently_used_paths/paired_folders).

Make sure you check the **valid** property before querying any others - if **valid** is **False** it means the folder had no pair, so none of the other properties will exist.
