displaying a menu screen for selecting a function to be executed from among a plurality of functions of the application, wherein the plurality of functions includes a first function including a process of storing data in a folder and a second function not including the process of storing data in a folder;
(a) in a case where a selection of the first function is accepted from the menu screen in a state where there is no folder associated with the application, causing the information processing apparatus to display a selection screen for selecting a folder to be associated with the application, wherein the application is associated with the folder selected on the selection screen, and the data of the application is stored in the selected folder thereafter; and
(b) in a case where a selection of the second function is accepted from the menu screen in a state where there is no folder associated with the application, not causing the information processing apparatus to display the selection screen,
wherein the state where there is no folder associated with the application occurs in a case where the application needs to newly acquire access permission to the folder due to a version upgrade of an operating system (OS) operating in the information processing apparatus.
