How to Create a New Folder |
|
|
| Creating a New Folder in Windows XP | ||
| One should get in the habit of
creating folders to organize all the parts and pieces of a project.
Windows XP has more than one way to create a folder. Following is one
way: 1. Click on Start and then click on My Documents. |
|
|
 |
||
| 2. Look at the top left of the
My Documents screen. You'll see a phrase that says "Make a new
folder." Click on that phrase. |
||
 |
||
| 3. A "new folder"
icon will appear at the bottom of the list in the Window on the right.
The text will be highlighted in blue. Simply type in the name of your
new folder. Hit the Enter key or click in a white, neutral zone off to
the side to accept the name of the folder. (If you make a mistake,
right-click on the folder, choose rename, and type in the name again.) |
||
 |
||
| 4. You can make folders within
folders. Double-click on your new folder. It will be empty. Simply click
on the "make a new folder" command on the left of the My
Documents window and another new folder will appear. This allows you to
create a main folder for your files and then organize related files into
subfolders such as ones for pictures, sounds, movies, etc. |
||
 |
||
| 5. If you don't want a folder,
first empty its contents. Next, click on it to select it and then simply
hit the delete key. |
