Step
1:Create a Download Folder
Start by establishing good habits. Organizing your download files will
help. Let's start by creating a new folder (directory) called C:\download
for your use.
- If you use
the Windows 95 Explorer: highlight your C: drive, and then click on
these menu items, one after the other: File | New > Folder. When a folder
entitled New Folder is created, rename it download.
Note: A word about distinguishing between the Windows 95 Explorer and
Microsoft Internet Explorer. The Windows 95 Explorer is the system tool
that helps you examine and access your entire computer; files; directories;
drives; desktop, etc. In contrast, Microsoft Internet Explorer is the browser
you can use to surf the Web.
- If you use
the Windows 3.1 or 95 File Manager, highlight your C: drive, and then
click on these menu items, one after the other: File | Create Directory.
Type download into the name box that appears and click OK.
