Explaining how to use Folders

[ideasguy]

Has anyone found a good website which explains how to navigate/explore your computer and manage folders?
Ive started to do one myself as I find from my support experience that is a total mystery to many users.

Ive made a start.
Heres how it looks:

Does everyone have the program Winmdows Explorer on their computer?
Does anyone have questions on what has been shown so far?

looking good  i actually found windows explorer on my vista machine and it opens up as Documents but the layout is the same as in your screenshot pictures,

Been trying to teach my mum how to use the email program that came with her laptop (as she uses hotmail and complains that she cant logon with it, uses hotmail because she went to some pc classes and they were taught about email using hotmail)  she has windows 7 what is the email programe called, as they change the names and i have not seen the laptop and it is nighmare even over skype to try to get her to find it, so any directions on how she can find it greatly appreciated

Yes, I now need to add another note to that Guide to say that the screenshots are from an XP computer.
The names of the User Profile folders changed with the introduction of Windows Vista, and are the same in W7, I believe.
The names are shorter than in XP, so mercifully a step in the right direction 
Us poor developers have to design our software to install on all Operating Systems - fun, I can assure you!

Your question. Could it be Windows Live Hotmail?
Heres a link:

So we can keep this topic on track, please start a new topic for this Phil. I'm sure it would be useful to others
