What you need to know about libraries |
May 22, 2014
Edu Azevedo asked me about Windows 7’s Libraries (they’re also in Windows 8), and why one should store files there.To the uneducated eye, Windows’ libraries are simply convenient places to store your data files, such as documents, spreadsheets, pictures, music, and videos. And they are convenient. They make it easier to find, organize and back up the most important files on your hard drive.But they’re not actually places—in the sense that they’re not folders on your hard drive. They’re pointers to other folders, and each library can point to more than one folder. For instance, the Documents library by default points to two different folders: My Documents and Public Documents. (The difference? Other people can more easily access the Public Documents.)To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
