A. Introduction Good Day once again! Time to learn something new. Are you ready?
Panimula In the previous topic, you have learned to create folders to store your files,
retrieve files from the search box found in Windows explorer. The windows
explorer which is now termed as file explorer in newer version of Windows OS, is
a computer program that provides graphical user interface which lets the user
organize the files and folders in the storage devices. In this lesson, we will focus
on the file management utility features from the windows package.

To begin with, watch the video on the link below.

Read the concepts about File Management Utility Features carefully to gain
understanding and skills which you can apply in your daily use of computer.
The File Explorer is usually found once you click the start button in the column of
windows program; this is true with the Windows 10 version.

C. Engagement In Windows 10, the file explorer icon can also be found, pinned on the taskbar.
Pakikipagpalihan Click the icon to open the File Explorer window. In the file explorer window click
This PC on the navigation pane. This will display all the drives that your computer
has access to and will also display an area in which you can navigate with the
drive through your folder structure to locate files. Once a file or folder is located,
it can be moved, copied, renamed, zipped or deleted.

Hard disk drive - A common letter for the main hard disk drive of a computer is
C:\. The C:\ drive is typically the computer's main internal storage unit.

Removable Storage - There are several different types of removable storage
that can be used for saving and transferring files from one computer to
another.
Network Drive - If the computer is connected to a computer network, you will
have access to network drives in addition to those available locally on the
computer that you are using.
In the previous topic, you learned how to find a file inside the file explorer. Let us
have a short recap of that together with the other features and tasks that can
be done with the File Management Utility.
Finding Your Files – You already know how to locate or find a file by using the
search box in the file explorer in case you forgot the location where you exactly
saved the file. By simply typing the keyword of your file you can easily locate
the file.
Opening a File - Windows Explorer can be used to open a file that is saved on
your computer or other storage device. Once you locate the file, simply double
click the file, or right click to open.
Copying a File – The process of copying will leave the original file (or folder)
intact, in its current location and create a duplicate in a new location which
can be renamed after pasting in the new location. Select the file or folder that
you want to copy, right click then copy or Ctrl + C after which go to the
location where you want to put it then just press Ctrl+ V or paste.
Moving a File or Folder - to move a file (or folder) is like that of copying.
However, the file (or folder) is removed from the original location, placed on the
clipboard and then pasted (moved) to the new location, instead of using the
copy command, cut command is used or Ctrl+ X.

Deleting a file or folder –To clean and organize your storage, be careful in
deleting a file particularly the ones that do not exist in your hard drive because
it can be permanently deleted. If it existed in the hard drive, there is a possibility
that it can be restored in the recycle bin.

Zipping (Compressing) a Folder - Zipping is the process of packaging a folder

that contains multiple files into a single file (called a "Compressed" or "Zipped"
file). A Zip file has a ".zip" file extension and the icon for the zip file looks like a
folder with a zipper. For the recipient to view the files, they first need to unzip or
extract the zipped folder to access the individual files inside.

Steps in Zipping a folder from File Explorer.

1. Find the location of the folder that you would like to zip. Do not open the
folder, just click on it once to select.
2.Right-click on the folder, point to the "Send-To" option and select the
"Compressed (zipped) Folder" option.
3.If a border appears around the folder’s name, Press the Enter Key to accept
the default name of the zipped folder.
4.This will create a second copy of the folder with a ".zip" file extension. The icon
of the zipped folders is a picture of a zipper on the folder.
5.The zipped folder is now ready to be sent.

Steps in Unzipping a folder from File Explorer.

1.Select the zip folder in storage drive location.

2. Right click the zip file/folder. Select “Extract All” from the shortcut menu.
3.A dialog box will appear where you need to browse where you will put the
extracted folder.
4.The folder will then be extracted on the selected location and it will turn as an
ordinary folder.
5. The files within the folder can be accessed after it has been extracted.
