Does Your Desktop Look Like A Teenager's Room?

How to Use FileMenu to Manage Your Files More Efficiently - How-To Geek. Okay, you know who you are. You have 2,000 emails in your Inbox. You can't see your wallpaper image anymore because it is so cluttered with Program icons. You don't even bother to open Windows Explorer anymore, because there is absolutely no chance that you will find what you need in there. Here's a tip for you: download this little add-on for Explorer, and right-click some of those files and put them in a Folder you will be able to find. I keep my desktop clean by organizing it into just a few Folders, which contain programs that are related. One for Law Office programs, one for Utilities, and so forth. The only rule you need for Email is to create some Email folders with names like Clients, Family, Software, and so forth, and discipline your self to move every new message into an appropriate folder after it is read and dealt with. If you don't have time to deal with it right now, move it to a Folder called "Pending", and discipline yourself to look at, and deal with, items in that Folder on a regular basis. Got it? Now, go clean your desktop.

Or you could use the sweet little program from TechHit - SimplyFile. It learns your filing habits and where you want your e-mails to be filed in your cabinet. Easy to use and inexpensive.
