I have been using Windows 7 for some time now and I am still figuring things out with it. The folder options aren't new within Windows 7, it has been utilized in older version of Windows as well.
First go to the Conrol Panel and then click on Folder Options
On the General Tab, you can be able to open an item with a single click instead of double clicking something. I prefer double clicking but some other people prefer to single click on things to open them.
On the View Tab, you can hide the extensions for known file types. This option is normally already checked. If you would like to see "FileName.doc" instead of "FileName", then you would uncheck this option. You may also choose the option to show hidden files and folders. These are files like autoexec.bat or config.sys (or other system files that are hidden). If you don't want to mess with these types of files, then use the "Don't show hidden files, folders, or drives" option.
