Windows Explorer is a file management tool that lets you create, rename, and move folders. It also allows you to copy, print, move, delete, and rename files.
The My Computer icon on the desktop is another tool you can use to manage files on your computer. With this tool, you can create, rename, and move folders and copy, print, move, delete, and rename files. It also allows you to gain access to other system tools such as printers and the Control Panel.
You may notice that Windows Explorer is more text-based, while My Computer is more picture-based. Below, part of the Control Panel is viewed in My Computer.
Windows offers several ways of working with text and files. Copying and moving are two useful techniques.
Moving files and folders on your computer is relatively easy using My Computer or Windows Explorer.
Note: To choose a folder in the left pane of Windows Explorer, click the folder. It will darken when you select it.
You may need to move or copy multiple files or folders on your computer.
You can choose how you want to display files and folders on your computer. You can display them as large icon, small icons, as a list, or as a list with details including size, type, and date last modified.
