I'm just wondering how to create a file on Wordpad?It's a program I have on my laptop, since I don't have Microscoft Word; I want to create a file to put all of my documents in. My sister might need to use my computer+printer when she starts middle school in... 19 days. D8 I don't want her to "accidentally" open up any of my documents and mess with them. I have some poems, long stories, and old assignments on there.I just want to make a file, call it "Danielle's folder" or something, and drag all my documents into it. So my sister could read my stuff is she WANTED to, but it would be harder to find if it's not out in plain sight.It's hard to explain... Let's just say, I have trust issues. ._. So can anyone help me out?

@Orderedchaos I know how to find a "my documents" button on Microscoft Word, but I don't have that on my laptop. I use some system called Wordpad, it came free on my computer. It's a bit cheap, but it's still good for typing.There azren't many buttons though... Should I try right-clicking to see if anything comes up in the menu that would help?

@dreamer This isn't going through wordpad, this is just going straight to the Documents folder (use the start/microsoft button in the bottom left of of your screen to get there). This is probably a lot simpler and easier than try to create a folder through another program.

@Orderedchaos Oh! I got it. Thanks! 😊I managed to create a folder; All my documents are in it safely (and I've got TONS of documents!). My files look a lot cleaner too. XD
