2.18. Start [Your Name ]: The Personal FolderAs the box makes clear, Windows Vista keeps all of your stuffyour files, folders, email, pictures, music, bookmarks, even settings and preferencesin one handy, central location: your Personal folder . That's a folder bearing your name (or whatever account name you typed when you installed Vista). Everyone with an account on your PC has a Personal foldereven if you're the only one with an account. Note: See Chapter 15 for the full scoop on user accounts. Technically, your Personal folder lurks inside the C: Users folder. But thats a lot of burrowing when you just want a view of your entire empire. That's why your Personal folder is also listed here, at the top of the Start menu's right-side column. Choose this listing to open the folder that you'll eventually fill with new folders, organize, back up, and so on.
