Select the existing list to which you want to add the file, or click Add to New Favorites List to add it to the new list. Open the file in the editor and press Alt+Shift+F. To open one or more favorite items, select them in the list and press F4. Whenever you need to access your favorite items, press Alt+2 or choose View | Tool Windows | Favorites from the menu. You can create more lists and move items between them, if necessary. There's always one pre-defined empty list that has the same name as the project. IntelliJ IDEA adds breakpoints and bookmarks to the Favorites list automatically. The list can include project elements (files, folders, packages, instance and class members), bookmarks, and breakpoints. To quickly access such files, add them to the Favorites list.

Normally, there's a number of files or folders that you need more often than the rest of the project. When your project comprises thousands of files, browsing them can be tedious.
