How to manage your files and folders?

I know - being organized can be boring, but after you have made countless amounts of files, stored all over your computer and you have 754 "New Folders, you'll see the point in being organized!
Just like with everything else in your house, it is nice to know where to find things.

 

When you want to save a document or a file you have created, you have several choices to where you want to save it

Double-click your "My Computer" icon on the desktop
and a window like this will appear

The window will be showing you YOUR drives. The picture above is just an example.
Some computers will have a D: drive under the section of hard disk drives (sometimes called a Data drive)- like in my example above. If you have one, I suggest to you to use that drive for storage. If you DON'T have a D: drive use the "My Documents" folder. If you have D: drive, you can store you files in folders you create.
WARNING Your "My Documents" folder is a system folder. You can store files, create new sub folders in it, and even back-up (make a copy) of that whole folder to another location, just don't move that folder to any other location on your computer! If you remove it or move it somewhere else, you'll might mess up your system!

 

Okay....so how do you save a file, so you can find it again?

Try this:

• Open your Wordpad program Click Programs > Accessories > WordPad
• write your name - or anything you like
• click "Files" on top of the window
• choose "Save as" - a new window appears
• on the top of that window you will see a "save in" field. Choose Desktop as your destination from the drop-down menu (if it's not already shown)
• in the bottom of the window *.txt will be highlighted. Write your first name on top of what's here
• Click "Save"

Your file will appear on your desktop. If you double-click that file, it will open.
Okay....try it again from the top of the list above - only this time, when you click Files > Save as..choose your "My Documents" folder from the Drop-down menu and click Save.
Remember to delete those files again - having random, useless files lying around on your desktop or in your "MY Documents" folder is NOT being organized.
It's no big deal having a few "loose" files on your desktop or in your private folder, but after a while finding a specific file will be difficult, so do yourself the favor of being organized about your saved files from the beginning. You will thank yourself later on for that!
