102 Learning the Basics Starting a program Starting a program from the Start menu When you install a program, the operating system usually puts an icon in the All Programs menu. To start a program that has an icon in the All Programs menu, follow these steps, which use the Windows® Wordpad program as an example: 1 Click Start, then point to All Programs. The Windows® XP operating system displays the All Programs menu, which lists programs and program groups. If your program is listed, go to step 3, otherwise, continue with step 2. 2 Point to the program group, in this example, Accessories. The Accessories menu is displayed. 3 Click the program, in this example, Wordpad. Wordpad opens. To close the program, click the Close button in the upper-right corner of the program's window. Starting a program from Windows® Explorer If a program is not listed in the Programs menu, you can start it from Windows® Explorer. Windows® Explorer displays your computer's contents as a hierarchy or "tree." You can easily see the content of each drive and folder on your computer. To use this method, you should know the file name and location of the program's executable file (this file ends with .exe). This example opens Wordpad using its file name, wordpad.exe. 1 Click Start, then point to All Programs. 2 Click Accessories. 3 Click Windows Explorer.
