What are folders on your computer for? For the same purpose for which folders in the closet are needed - they allow you to organize documents. This means that you will not need to revise a lot of files in search of the necessary documents. A folder is for storing other folders or files in it. So, you decided to carry out this very systematization. We have already created a folder, while by default it is named "New folder", which means that the system will call the next folder "New folder 2". Move the mouse cursor over the folder, right-click and select the "Rename" command.
Instructions
Step 1
The name of the folder should help you determine which documents are in it. Therefore, depending on the purpose, you can name the folders by organizing documents by date (for example, 2010-21-01), by the name of the client (Ivanov, Sidorova), and so on.
Step 2
It is recommended to use Russian and Latin letters, spaces, punctuation marks in the folder name. Unlike files, folder names do not use the extension, but if you want to, you can use it as well.
Step 3
The folder can be named whatever you want, as long as it is convenient for you. But there are certain limitations.
1. You cannot name the folder with the names Prn, Aux, Com1, Com2, Lpt1, Lpt2, Con. These port names are reserved by the system. If you try to name a folder like this, the system will display a warning about the impossibility of such an operation.
2. Do not start the folder name with a period.
3. Like the file name, the folder name does not need to start with a period, use square or curly {} brackets.
4. You will not be able to create a folder using the service characters / |: *?"
5. For the system, lowercase and uppercase letters are the same, which means that you cannot create two different folders named "Folder" and "Folder".
We hope that with the help of this article you have managed to put things in order in your documents, and this has greatly facilitated your work.
