Keeping your work organized is important so that you can locate documents quickly and easily. By default in Windows, all files are stored in the My Documents folder when you save them. You can easily make additional folders inside the My Documents folder using the instructions below.
Here is the step by step process. There is also an instructional video at the bottom of the page!!!
| Step 1: Double-click on the My Documents icon on your desktop. | |
|
|
| Step 2: The contents of your My Documents folder will be listed. The actual appearance of the My Documents folder varies based on what operating system you have installed on your computer. | |
|
|
| Step 3: If you are running Windows XP, you will be able to click Make a new folder under File and Folder Tasks to create a new folder. If you are running Windows 98, NT, or 2000, you can right click anywhere inside the folder and go to New > Folder (as shown below). | |
