In this example, we’re going to create a Sage folder on the C: drive of a standalone or server computer.

1. Right-click the Windows Start button and select File Explorer.
2. On the left, under This PC select OSDisk (C:) or C:.
3. Once you select the C: drive on the left. Right-click on a blank space in the folder location on the right. Take caution, if you right-click on an existing file or folder you’ll get the wrong menu.
4. From the right click menu, select New > and then select Folder from the menu. Windows will create the new folder at your current location (C:).
5. The system creates a folder called New folder and will open to edit the folder name.
6. Enter your desired folder name to replace "New folder" in this example enter Sage and press Enter.
