Files will be easier to find if you manage your files efficiently, straighten up your desktop frequently, and clean your hard drive regularly.

The Jackson Five Of File Management

1. Only keep files on your desktop when you're using them; otherwise, put them in a clearly-labeled folder on the C: drive.
2. When loose files equal ten or more, make folders to store them in!
3. Don't be afraid to delete files containing information you can get elsewhere or files you won't I need again.
4. Remember that folders can be more that just one level! Store folders inside folders!
5. Make file and folder names meaningful -- the more specific, the better!
