Exploring the Standard Virtual Folders

While in the previous section I only highlighted two of the Standard Virtual Folders, there are many others. To find them, you'll launch Windows Explorer and open your user folder and then the folder titled Virtual Folders. You can immediately discern Virtual Folders from standard folders as their icons are blue as opposed to yellow. By default, the beta version of the Virtual Folders folder contains:

* Albums
* All Documents
* All Music
* All Pictures and Videos
* All Videos
* Artists
* Authors
* Date Taken
* Favorite Music
* Genre
* Keywords
* Rating
* Recent
* Types
* User's Files

There are sure to be others once the operating system evolves; however, this give you a good feel for the type of information the Standard Virtual Folders will contain.

Keep in mind that any of the Custom Virtual Folders that you create will also reside in the Virtual Folders folder.

The Custom Virtual Folders are the ones that you create. You create a Custom Virtual Folder in Windows Vista in exactly the same way that you create a Saved Search Query in Windows XP. The only differences in the creation process are that you have a much more refined set of search criteria and when you save the search, it's actually saved as a Virtual Folder. The main difference in usage is that once you create a virtual folder, you never have to reconfigure the search -- you just open the folder and within a moment, the Custom Virtual folder will scan your hard disk and update the listing.
