How To Create New Folders and Nested Folders (Folders Within Folders)

You may easily create new folders or nested folders (folders within other folders) by following these steps.

1. Go to the location where you wish to create the folder (hard drive, My Documents, Storage Card Etc.) and open it. Make sure that nothing is selected. If it is, use Control plus Space Bar to unselect everything. This is important as it affects the menus that will be displayed.

2. Press the applications key or Alt key and locate New and press Enter. The New choice is usually available in either menu.

3. Locate the Folder choice and press Enter.

4. Type in the name of the new folder and press enter. Folders can easily be renamed by highlighting the folder you wish to rename. Press the Applications key and locate Rename and press enter. The F2 key will also work here. Type in the new name and press enter. Typing in the new name will usually remove the old one. But, be sure it does.
