🗂️ File Management

File management is simply the way you organise, save, and find your work on a computer. Think of it like keeping papers tidy in a filing cabinet — it helps you know where everything is when you need it.

📥 Saving Files

• When you create something (like a document), click File → Save As.

• Choose a folder (like Documents) and give your file a clear name.

• Click Save — now your work is stored safely.

• 
  

📂 Organising Files

• Create folders for different topics (e.g., Schoolwork, Photos, Bills).

• Inside each folder, you can make subfolders (e.g., Bills → 2025).

• Move files by dragging them into the right folder.

  
  

🔎 Finding Files

• Use the Search bar in File Explorer to look for a file by name.

• You can also sort files by date or type to make searching easier.

  
  

🧹 Tidying Up

• Delete files you no longer need (they’ll go to the Recycle Bin).

• Empty the Recycle Bin occasionally to free up space.

• Rename files if their names don’t make sense — clear names help later.

  
  

💡 Tip: Good file management saves time and reduces stress. A tidy computer makes it easier to focus on learning and enjoying technology.
