Is your “My Documents” folder getting so full that it's hard to find the document you are looking for? Then maybe it's time you start using folders to organize things. It's very easy to do and works for any location on your computer, not just My Documents.

• First, open my documents. (If you have Windows 2000 or XP a shortcut to this folder is probably already on your desktop. If you have Windows 95, you will need to go into My Computer, then C:, then you will see it.)
• Click on File, then to New, then Folder
• Name the folder whatever you want (i.e. Tests) and hit enter.
• Now you can click on any file and drag it on top of the folder you just created. When the folder is highlighted, you can 'drop' the file and it will move into that folder.

Create as many folders as you need. You can even open the folders you've made and make folders inside those folders. This will make it much easier to find things when you need them.

And now when you are in a program such as Word and you are saving a document, you will see the folders in My Documents and you can open them to save the file in the appropriate place!
