What is the function of the star with a green plus sign in Internet Explorer?

The star with a green plus sign in Internet Explorer is used to add a favorite to a specific folder. This function allows users to save their preferred websites for easy access later. When you click on this icon, it opens a dialog box where you can choose where to save the favorite, such as in the Favorites menu or in a specific folder you've created. This feature is particularly useful for organizing commonly visited websites, making browsing more efficient. By saving sites as favorites, you can easily revisit them without having to remember or search for their URLs each time.
