- [Instructor] To start setting up … your own file organization in File Explorer, … we need to be able to create folders … and rename files in folders. … I want to start in my Documents folder … where I have a subfolder called Photos. … I'm going to open that … and inside of that folder I have more folders … containing pictures from places I've traveled. … And I'd like to get this more organized. … So to start, I want to make a new folder … in this Photos folder. … So I need to make sure I'm in the Photos folder. … And I can confirm that by looking at the Path Bar. … I know exactly which folder I'm in. … Then I'm going to go to the Home ribbon up at the top … and I'll choose New Folder. … And that gives me this new folder here. … Now when you make a new folder, … the name of it will be highlighted in blue. … At that point you can type in a different name. … So I'm going to type in the name I want to give it, … then hit the Return key and that name is all set. … All right let's make another folder. …
