Lesson 5: Creating a new folder
Sample Notepad window
Notice that when the document opens, there is a new button
on the taskbar that reads My New File- Notepad (the name
may be too long to fit into the taskbar space but, if you point to
the name, the complete name is visible). By displaying
buttons like this one, the taskbar helps you keep track of the
programs and files you currently have open.
To learn more about Notepad, open the Help menu by

Lesson 5: Creating a new folder
DEFINITION: A folder is an area where you can store
documents and other types of files. It is analogous to a file
folder stored in a file cabinet. In this case, a disk drive in the
computer is the file cabinet.
