I'm glad I am not the only person that is organizationally challenged. I
have learned that Windows and Windows apps will do a very reasonable job of
organizing themselves if you simply use the default installation location.
Simple variation examples:
To install your applications to a different drive change C:/program
files/AppPublisher/AppName/bin to D:/program
files/AppPublisher/AppName/bin
To organize pictures, music and other "stuff" add various folders to your My
Documents folders. Such as My Downloads, My ClipArt, My Vacation, My
Journal etc.
Many programs will default to My Documents or a subfolder to keep your data
files, but watch the install process (always use the "custom" install, but
only change what MUST be changed) to make sure.
Organizing all of your data (including downloaded software install files) in
one main folder such as "My Documents" will vastly simplify backup and
restore operations.
