You can use this default location as a starting point for creating a hierarchy of folders or you can create your own main folder and set "My Documents" to point to that location. Whether you use the Windows default location or specify your own, "My Documents" is the place where files are saved.

Once the default has been established, you can also create additional folders within any program you use. T o create a subfolder of the My Documents folder, do the following. QuickTip: Any time text is highlighted, you can simply start typing to replace the highlighted text. Rather than "bury" your files in the location specified by the Windows operating system, you might want to create your own top-level folder and point to that location as the "My Documents" default.

The instructions below assume you'd like to create a top-level folder called MyFiles on the C: drive. Creating the Top-Level Folder:. Changing the Default "My Documents" Location:. Make sure you've created the top-level folder as described above and then do the following. Once you've established the MyFiles folder as the "My Documents" target location you can add folders within that folder by following the instructions given in the " Creating a Hierarchy of Folders Within the Windows Default 'My Documents' Folder " section above.
