"My Documents" on your desktop

$Account.OrganizationName
Greetings!
"My Documents" on your desktop
Save a little time

One of the questions I'm asked most often is, "How do I put the 'My Documents' folder on my desktop?" It's so easy you won't believe it.

LEFT click the Start button in the lower left corner of your screen. A list will pop up. Look in the top right corner of the list and one of the items you will see is My Documents. Here's another chance to use that RIGHT mouse button. RIGHT click My Documents and a shortcut menu will appear. Look toward the bottom of the list of choices. One of them is Show on Desktop. LEFT click it and it will place a My Documents folder on your desktop. Now wasn't that easy? If only EVERYTHING about computers were so simple.

About Me

My photo
I love teaching senior citizens to use computers. I'm a senior myself, so I'm working with my peers. When I work with you in your home on your computer, I don't sit in front of your computer and TELL you want to do. You sit in front of your computer while I TEACH you what to do. I also write step-by-step instructions for you to follow when I'm not there.
