                     ORGANISING FILES AND FOLDERS


                 When you install any program, it creates its own folder on your hard disk where it
                 keeps most of its files. This helps your computer system to find the right files to use
                 when running a program.

                 Keeping files organised in folders can also help when you are working with your

                 PC. You can use folders to sort your files into separate categories. If you know how
                 to create, move, copy and delete folders, it can help you arrange your files more
                 efficiently and effectively.
