Create a Folder
|
| File
Folders allow you to organize your files. This will reduce the time you
need to spend to access them later on. You can create file folders on
your hard drive, floppy disk or zip disk. There are many ways to create
folders on your computer; here's one of the easiest ways of doing it. |
 |
|

Begin by thinking
of a topic for which you'll need a folder.
It's helpful to
create a folder for each topic for which you expect to have many
associated files. For example, you might create a folder for each of
your classes, another for correspondence with friends, and another for
correspondence with family, and even additional folders within those
topics if, for example, you have a lot of correspondence with one
particular family member.
