copying and deleting files

copying and/or deleting files could potentially the easiest thing that could be done on your computer apart from turning it on or opening files etc.




first of all what you want to do is to to find the file that you want to copy or delete be it a song, video, photo etc. right click the file and a menu will appear alongside giving you various options two of which being copy and delete. now you will want to decide wether you are trying to delete or copy the file. Deleting the file will send the file to the waste bin, (note) that the file will not be permanently deleted it will only be sent to the waste bin, this is because the system will save the file in case it has to be restored i.e. if accidentally deleted etc.



To copy the file you should follow the before procedure of right clicking the specific file and selecting copy from the menu, now you have to decide where to copy the file to, for this example i will copy the file to the same folder that it was originally in. i must now open up and right click the folder that i wish to copy to file to and select paste from the menu. for this i will copy the file ''MONEYCHIMP''

The file moneychimp is now stored twice in my folder as a result of copying and pasting.
hope thats been useful
