ICT PD

File Management

1. Desktop – right click on desktop, scroll down to New. A folder will appear, you can rename it straight away.

2. You are able to drag folders into folders by left clicking onto folder that you would like to move and holding left click down, you then drag.

3. My Document – Organise Folders. Go to View on Menu Toolbar and change the way you would like you’re "My Documents" to be set out (thumbnails, title etc)

4. To change your folder to look like an icon – Right click on a folder that you would like to change. Scroll down to properties and click on “Customise” Tab (if you do not see a “Customise” Tab then you are unable to alter it) you then click on “Change Icon”.

Oooo....a weee change to step 5.

It should read "if you want to make a FILE read only..."

Windows (for some reason) is relucatant to make the contents of a folder readn only).

This way, a user can CHANGE a document - but cannot save over the original....
