CHAPTER 2: Using Windows

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:

Click

(

Start

), then click

Computer

on the Start menu.

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 want to create a new folder inside an existing folder, double-click the existing folder.

Click

Organize

, then click

New Folder

. The new folder is created.

Type a name for the folder, then press

NTER

. The new folder name appears by the folder

icon.

For information about renaming folders, see

“Shortcuts” on page 16

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.

To copy a file or folder to another folder:

Locate the file or folder you want to copy. For more information, see

“Viewing drives” on

page 9

and

“Searching for files” on page 12

Right-click (press the right mouse button) the file or folder that you want to copy. A pop-up
menu opens on the desktop.

Click

Copy

on the pop-up menu.

Open the destination folder.

Shortcut

Click File

New

Folder

type name

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.
