If I could impart one aspect of my computer knowledge to everyone who uses a computer, it would be the ability to understand file management.
File management, in the computer world, means how information (files) are stored and utilized on a computer system. Understanding file management, means understanding:
- How to locate files (documents, pictures, spreadsheets, music, etc) on your computer.
- How to move those files from one area (directory or folder) to another area on the computer.
- How to delete those files.
- How to backup those files so you never lose them.
- How to send the files to another person via email.
- How to manipulate the file in various programs and understand what programs can manipulate what files.
- How to properly save an email attachment and how to find it any time you need it.
- How to determine how much physical space a file uses and how much space is available on your hard drive, cd, flash drive, etc.
The answers to all these questions give a computer user so much more confidence and power than a person who doesn't have this knowledge. With solid file management know-how, many aspects of computing that used to be a chore become routine. Questions that have been haunting a computer user for years, suddenly become clear with the knowledge of file management.
In my day-to-day dealings with computer users of all abilities, the lack of file management knowledge clearly stands out as being the largest hurdle for any computer user. Unfortunately, trying to explain file management in a short troubleshooting session is extremely difficult.
If you happen to be a computer user who struggles with the information I described above, I implore you to learn about file management. I created a video tutorial called THE Secret to Computing that describes in depth how to gain the knowledge of file management that will greatly enhance how you work with your computer. For just $25 + shipping, I will send you the video that will change your computing life.
