Chapter 2: Using Windows XP

Creating folders

Folders

are much like the folders in a file cabinet. They can contain files and other

folders.

Files

are much like paper documents—letters, spreadsheets, and pictures—that you

keep on your computer. In fact, all information on a computer is stored in files.

To create a folder:

1 Click Start, then click My Computer on the Start menu.
2 Double-click the drive where you want to put the new folder. Typically, Local

Disk (C:) is your hard drive and 3½ Floppy (A:) is your diskette drive. If you do

not see the contents of the drive, click Show the contents of this drive.

3 If you want to create a new folder inside an existing folder, double-click the

existing folder. If you do not see the contents of the drive or folder, click Show

the contents of this drive or Show the contents of this folder.

4 Click File, New, then click Folder. The new folder is created.
5 Type a name for the folder, then press E

NTER

. The new folder name appears by

the folder icon.

For information about renaming folders, see

“Shortcuts” on page 18

Copying and moving files and folders

The skills you need to copy and move files are called

copying

cutting

, and

pasting

When you

copy and paste

a file or folder, you place a

copy

of the file or folder on

the Windows

clipboard

, which temporarily stores it. Then, when you decide what

folder you want the copy to go in (the

destination

folder), you

paste

it there.

When you

cut and paste

a file or folder, you remove the file or folder from its original

location and place the file or folder on the Windows clipboard. When you decide

where you want the file or folder to go, you paste it there.

Important

The clipboard stores whatever you cut or copy until you cut or copy

again. Then the clipboard contains the new information only. Therefore, you

can paste copies of a file or folder into more than one place, but as soon as

you copy or cut a different file or folder, the original file or folder is deleted

from the clipboard.
