    Is there a way to organize my files/ downloads?


    What I mean is. I want to download lots of programs and files because I want to get into modding games. It seems like when I download something they get put in some random place. There are so many different locations where files and programs can be. I don't wanna sound stupid, but is there a way I can make it similar to a downloading apps on a phone? When I download an app on my phone it pops up on home. Then from there I can put into a folder with a name, that way it stays organized.

    File organizer software?

    Hello all!

    Im wondering if anyone has any suggestions for file organizing software, specifically software that can find duplicates and help weed them out. Im migrating some old stuff to my new build and seems I have a TON of duplicate files, but it will take me months to go through it all.

    Free software would be great, but if its good Ill gladly pay.

    Thanks!

    When you download a file through any browser, there's an option somewhere to 'Open Containing Folder.'

    In Windows, to find a file you have downloaded...

    1. Open your personal folder by clicking the Start button and then clicking your user name at the top of the Start menu's right pane.
    2. Double-click one of the following folders:
      • Downloads
      • Documents
      • Pictures
      • Videos
      • Music


    If you do not see the file you are looking for, but know its file name, you can search for it by following these steps:
    To search for a file you have downloaded...

    1. Click the Start button
    2. Type all or part of the file name into the Search box.
      The file you are looking for will appear in the list of results.
