了解如何打开文件、文件夹和应用程序对于使用Windows 10 计算机或设备(computer or device)至关重要。根据您的偏好和您尝试打开的项目类型，有几种方法可以访问您的文件和文件夹，并且不止一种方法可以启动您最喜欢的应用程序。本教程说明了在Windows 10(Windows 10)中打开文件、文件夹和应用程序的不同方法：
如何在 Windows 10 中打开文件夹
文件夹用于对 Windows 10计算机或设备(computer or device)上的文件进行分组和组织。要使用鼠标打开桌面上的文件夹，您应该首先将鼠标指针或光标(pointer or cursor)放在文件夹上。然后，在不移动鼠标光标(mouse cursor)的情况下执行双击，这意味着您必须快速连续单击鼠标左键(left mouse button)两次。如果正确执行，此操作应该会导致文件夹打开。如果您使用的是触摸屏设备，请快速点击文件夹图标两次。
或者，右键单击文件夹（通过按鼠标右键）突出显示它并打开上下文菜单。单击(Click)打开（一次，用鼠标左键(left mouse button)）(Open)。如果您使用的是触摸屏设备，请按住屏幕上的文件夹以打开同一上下文菜单的更大版本。然后，点击打开(Open)。
要在不使用鼠标的情况下打开文件夹，请在桌面上按几次Tab键，直到突出显示桌面上的某个项目。(Tab)
然后，使用箭头键突出显示要打开的文件夹。
当文件夹突出显示时，按键盘上的Enter键将其打开。
如果该文件夹不在您的桌面上，您可以使用显示 Windows 10 PC 上所有文件夹的文件资源管理器(File Explorer)来查找并打开它。虽然有多种方法可以打开文件资源管理器(File Explorer)，但我们发现使用键盘快捷键(keyboard shortcut) WIN + E最简单。然后，如上所述，使用鼠标、键盘或点击屏幕，打开文件资源管理器中显示的文件(File Explorer)夹。

如何在 Windows 10 中打开文件
Windows 10计算机或设备(computer or device)上的数据（如图片、视频或文档）存储为文件。要打开文件，请双击或双击它（对于触摸屏），与文件夹相同。
提示：(TIP:)如果您不喜欢双击或双击，请查看我们的教程，了解如何更改Windows设置以使用（单击）或点击(click or tap)代替。
或者，右键单击或按住（对于触摸屏）文件以突出显示它并打开上下文菜单。然后，在Open上(Open)单击或点击(click or tap)（对于触摸屏）。
不用鼠标打开文件的说明也与文件夹的说明相同。如上一节所示，使用Tab、箭头键和Enter从文件资源管理器(File Explorer)导航不同的文件夹，直到突出显示要打开的文件。
选择文件后，按Enter 键(Enter)将其打开。
您尝试打开的大多数文件都会被Windows 10识别，它会启动相应的程序来访问它们。但是，有时，您的系统没有打开您请求的文件所需的应用程序。如果您在打开文件时遇到该问题，请阅读在Windows(Windows)中打开文件扩展名未知的文件的 3 种方法。
如何在 Windows 10 中打开应用程序
App代表应用软件(application software)。应用程序是在Windows 10上运行的程序，Windows 10是您计算机或设备上的(computer or device)操作系统(operating system)。当操作系统(operating system)运行计算机时，应用程序会根据其程序员设计的功能执行各种其他操作，从使您能够访问和更改(access and change content)PC 上的内容到帮助您联系他人、检查您的社交媒体、玩游戏， 等等。基本上(Basically)，您在Windows 10设备上所做的一切都是由应用程序完成的。
在Windows 10(Windows 10)中打开应用程序的最简单方法是从“开始”菜单(Start Menu)。因此，如果您想知道“您首先单击哪个按钮来打开(Which button)Windows 10中的任何程序？” - 就像我们的一些读者所做的那样 - 答案是屏幕左下角的Windows按钮。(Windows)如果您使用的是触摸屏，也可以点击该按钮。
如果您只有一个可用的键盘，请按位于底部左侧的Windows键。(Windows)
这将打开“开始”菜单(Start Menu)，按字母顺序列出 Windows 10计算机或设备(computer or device)上安装的所有应用程序。
使用鼠标上的滚轮或在应用列表中上下滑动以找到您想要的应用。然后，单击或点击(click or tap)应用程序的条目以将其打开。如果您找到一个同名的文件夹，应用程序的快捷方式应该在里面。单击或点击“开始”菜单(Start Menu)中的任何文件夹都会打开它，让您可以打开应用程序。
如果您只想使用键盘，在打开开始菜单(Start Menu)后，您可以使用向上和向下箭头键在应用程序列表中移动。按Enter打开选定的文件或应用程序。
您还可以从“开始”菜单(Start Menu)的右侧单击或点击应用程序的快捷方式或磁贴(shortcut or tile)，或者在其任务栏快捷方式(taskbar shortcut)上将其打开。
或者，如果快捷方式在桌面上，它会像任何其他文件一样通过双击或双击打开。对于桌面应用程序(desktop apps)，您还可以在文件资源管理器中找到它们的可执行文件 ( (File Explorer).exe )并通过打开它来启动它们。
您还可以使用键盘快捷键(keyboard shortcut)打开应用程序，您可以通过阅读如何(How)使用键盘快捷(keyboard shortcut)键启动任何Windows 应用程序(Windows app)来学习。

How to open files, folders, and apps in Windows 10 like a Pro
Knowing how to open files, folders, and apps is vital to using your Windows 10 cоmрuter or device. Depending on your preferences and on the type of item you аre trying to open, there are several methods of accessing your files and folders аnd more than one way to launch your favorite apps. This tutorial illustrаtes differеnt ways to open files, folders, and apps in Windows 10:
How to open folders in Windows 10
Folders are used to group and organize the files on your Windows 10 computer or device. To open a folder on the desktop using a mouse, you should place the pointer or cursor of the mouse over the folder first. Then, without moving the mouse cursor, perform a double-click, meaning you have to click twice, in rapid succession, on the left mouse button. If performed correctly, this action should cause the folder to open. If you're using a touchscreen device, tap twice rapidly on the folder's icon.
Alternatively, right-clicking on a folder (by pressing the right mouse button) highlights it and opens a contextual menu. Click on Open (once, with the left mouse button). If you're using a touchscreen device, press-and-hold the folder on your screen to open a larger version of the same contextual menu. Then, tap on Open.
To open a folder without a mouse, on your desktop, press the Tab key a few times until one of the items on your desktop is highlighted.
Then, use the arrow keys to highlight the folder you want to open.
When the folder is highlighted, press Enter on your keyboard to open it.
If the folder is not on your desktop, you can use File Explorer, which shows all the folders on your Windows 10 PC, to find and open it. While there are several ways to open File Explorer, we find it easiest to use the keyboard shortcut WIN + E. Then, use either the mouse, the keyboard, or tap your screen, as explained above, to open the folders displayed in File Explorer.

How to open files in Windows 10
The data on your Windows 10 computer or device, like pictures, videos, or documents, is stored as files. To open a file, double-click or double-tap on it (for touchscreens), same as a folder.
TIP: If you don't like double-clicking or double-tapping, check out our tutorial on how to change Windows settings to use (a single) click or tap instead.
Alternatively, right-click or press-and-hold (for touchscreens) a file to highlight it and open a contextual menu. Then, click or tap (for touchscreens) on Open.
The instructions to open a file without a mouse are also the same as the ones for folders. Use Tab, the arrow keys, and Enter to navigate different folders from File Explorer, as shown in the previous section, until you highlight the file you want to open.
When the file is selected, press Enter to open it.
Most files you try to open are recognized by Windows 10, which launches the appropriate program to access them. However, sometimes, your system doesn't have the app needed to open the file you requested.

How to open apps in Windows 10
App stands for application software. An app is a program running on Windows 10, which is the operating system on your computer or device. While the operating system runs the computer, apps do a variety of other things, based on what their programmers designed them to do, from enabling you to access and change content on your PC to helping you contact others, check your social media, play games, and so on. Basically, everything you do on your Windows 10 device is accomplished by apps.
The easiest way to open apps in Windows 10 is from the Start Menu. So, if you want to know "Which button do you first click to open any program in Windows 10?" - like some of our readers did - the answer is the Windows button from the lower-left corner of your screen. You can also tap on that button if you are using a touchscreen.
If you only have a keyboard available, press the Windows key located at the bottom, on its left-hand side.
This opens the Start Menu, listing all the apps installed on your Windows 10 computer or device in alphabetical order.
Use the wheel on your mouse or swipe up and down in the list of apps to find the one you want. Then, click or tap on the app's entry to open it. If you find a folder with the same name instead, the app's shortcut should be inside. Clicking or tapping any folder in the Start Menu opens it, giving you access to open the app.
If you want to use the keyboard only, after opening the Start Menu, you can use the up and down arrow keys to move through the list of apps. Press Enter to open the selected files or apps.
You can also click or tap on an app's shortcut or tile from the right side of the Start Menu, or on its taskbar shortcut to open it.
Alternatively, if the shortcut is on the desktop, it opens like any other file, by double-clicking or double-tapping on it. For desktop apps, you can also find their executable file (.exe) in File Explorer and launch them by opening it.
You can also use keyboard shortcuts to open apps, as you can learn by reading How to start any Windows app with a keyboard shortcut.
