Adding Files & folder to favorite

Adding a file /folder/ web page to Favorite allows us to quickly reach to that particular location quickly, without searching for that particular file or folder.

You can easily move a file or folder directly onto the Favorites menu:

Find the file or folder using My Computer or Windows Explorer.

Click the file or folder in the My Computer or Exploring window and, holding down the left mouse button, drag it to the Favorites submenu. (While you are dragging the file, point to the Start button and then to Favorites to open the Favorites submenu.)

The locating bar shows you where the shortcut to the file or folder will be displayed. Release the mouse button to place the shortcut on the Favorites submenu.

There is another easy way to add a shortcut to a file or folder from Windows Explorer:

1. Select the file or folder (if you are in Web view, don’t click the item, just move the pointer over it until it is highlighted).

2. Click Favorites on the Explorer menu bar.

3. Click Add to Favorites. The Add Favorite dialog box opens.

4. Click OK to add the item directly onto the menu. Or, you can place it in a folder in theFavorites menu.

5. To place the item in a folder, click Create in and then click one of the existing folders.

You can also create a new folder in which to place the favorite item:

1. Select the file or folder (if you are in Web view, don’t click the item, just move the pointer over it until it is highlighted).

2. Click Favorites on the Explorer menu bar.

3. Click Add to Favorites. The Add Favorite dialog box opens.
