Starting a program
Starting a program from the Start/Programs menu
When you install a program, Windows usually puts an icon in the
Programs menu. To start a program that has an icon in the
Programs menu, follow these steps, which use the Windows
Wordpad program as an example:
1
Click
Start
, then point to
Programs
.
Windows displays the Programs menu, which lists programs
and program groups. If your program is listed, go to Step 3,
otherwise, continue with Step 2.
2
Point to the program group, in this example,
Accessories
.
Windows displays the Accessories menu.
3
Click the program, in this example,
Wordpad
.
Windows opens Wordpad.
To close the program, click the
Close
button in the upper-right
corner of the program’s window.
Starting a program from Windows Explorer
If a program is not listed in the Programs menu, you can start it
from Windows Explorer, which gives you a view of your
computer’s contents as a hierarchy or “tree.” You can easily see
the content of each drive and folder on your computer. To use this
method, you need the name and location of the program’s
executable file (this file name ends with .exe).
This Windows 98 Second Edition example opens Wordpad using
its file name of
wordpad.exe
