USING WINDOWS EXPLORER

• To get to the Windows Explorer program click START then PROGRAMS then WINDOWS EXPLORER.  A screen similar to the one below will appear:
  
  
      

• The left-hand side of the screen displays all the storage areas available on you computer.  The most common is the hard drive (often labeled the C: drive).   Notice the plus and minus signs next to the drives and folders?  If you click on a plus sign, it will display the contents of that drive or folder.  Clicking on a minus sign makes the contents disappear from view. 
  Try it.  Click on the plus sign (or minus sign) next to the C: drive.  Click the + or - sign again.  Notice how it makes the folders appear and disappear?

• In the left-hand side of the screen, if you click on a folder it will display the contents of that folder on the right side of the screen.  Try this.  Find a folder on the left side of the screen.  Click on the folder.  Notice that the contents of the folder is now displayed on the right side of the screen.  Also, the folder you clicked on is now shown as an open folder.  See the example below.   The selected folder on the left is open.  The contents of that folder is shown on the right.  Try clicking on other folders and notice what happens.

FINDING DOWNLOADED FILES

• Using Windows Explorer, find the folder where you saved the downloaded file.   Click on the folder and the its contents will be displayed in the right-hand side of the window. Notice the image below.  On the left the Downloads folder is open.   On the right side you see the contents of that folder.  These are three downloaded files.  The two that have .exe at the end of the filename are self-extracting files (they will unzip themselves without the assitance of a program like WinZip).  Just double click these files and the process will begin automatically.
  
  The first file (bapproved.zip) ends with a .zip which indicates it will need to have the WinZip in order to be unzipped.  If you have the WinZip program loaded on your computer, you will see an icon like the one next to the bapproved.zip file. If not, you will need to get a copy of such a program in order to unzip it. Again, double click the file and it will begin extracting the contents.
