A folder acts like a file cabinet, allowing you to organise your files. In other words,
                 it is a collection of files. If you were to scatter thousands of paper files on a desk,

                 finding a specific one would be extremely challenging when you need it. Therefore,
                 people typically use folders inside filing cabinets to group files, making it simpler
                 to locate individual documents.
                 Folders not only store files but also contain other folders. A folder inside another
                 folder is known as a subfolder. You can create multiple subfolders within a folder,
                 and each of these can hold both files and additional subfolders.

                    ORGANISING FILE/FOLDER


                 When you install a program, it generates its own folder on your hard disk to store
                 most  of  its  files.  This  setup  enables  your  computer  system  to  easily  locate  the
                 correct files needed to run the program.

                 Organising files into folders can improve your efficiency on your PC. By sorting
                 files into various folders, you can manage and find them more easily. Knowing how
                 to create, move, copy, and delete folders will enhance your file organisation and
                 make your work more effective.

                 Here is a list of some common folders where you can store your files and other
                 folders.

                 Documents :  This folder is primarily used for storing word processing
                                   documents,  spreadsheets,  presentations, and other

                                   business-related files.

                             Pictures :   This folder is used to keep all your digital images, including
                                          those copied from a camera or downloaded from the Internet.



                 Music  :   This folder is used to store music files, including songs copied
                             from an audio CD or downloaded from the Internet.



                             Videos  :   This folder is used to store videos captured with a digital
                                          camera or downloaded from the Internet.



                 Downloads  :  This folder is used to keep files that you have downloaded

                                  from the Internet.

                    CREATING A NEW FILE/FOLDER

                 The most common way to create a new file is by using a program. But you can also

                 create a file without opening any program or an application.



                                                                                   Features of File Management   85
