Starting a program The easiest way to start a program is to double-click the name of a file that is associated with the program you want to use. To find the file, use My Computer or Windows® Explorer. If you prefer to open the program first, you can: ❖ Use the Start menu ❖ Use Windows® Explorer or My Computer to locate the program file ❖ Use the Run dialog box The next three sections explain how to use these methods. 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.
