Files and folders found using this utility can be opened, copied, cut, renamed, or deleted directly
from the list in the results window.
Browsing for files and folders
A file or folder that you need is rarely right on top of your Windows desktop. It is usually on a
drive inside a folder that may be inside yet another folder, and so on.
Windows drives, folders, and files are organized in the same way as a real file cabinet in that
they may have many levels (usually many more levels than a file cabinet, in fact). So you usually
will have to search through levels of folders to find the file or folder that you need. This is called
browsing.
To browse for a file:
1
Click
(Start), then click Computer. The Computer window opens.
2
Double-click the drive or folder that you think contains the file or folder that you want to
find.
3
Continue double-clicking folders and their subfolders until you find the file or folder you
want.
