1. To move photos to another folder
Open My Computer and open the folder
Select the files you want to move.
Look at the menu on the left under File and Folder task
Click on Move
A window will open for you to select the folder you want or make a new
folder.
2. To see the file name in thumbnail view if you don't see them now.
Open the folder in thumbnail view
Click on the View icon and change view to details
Hold the shift key down and click on the view icon and click on thumbnails.
File name should now be under each thumbnail.

Software:
Roxio. Not what you want. Very good to copy to CD or DVD but not great photo
editor.
MS 10. If you are a beginner this is what you want (about $50.00 now with
rebates). Not the greatest manual but great "as you edit" help and will
prevent you from making mistakes. If you are a beginner, don't edit original
photos, make a copy of the file and edit the copy.
Photo explosion. I have no idea about this.
If you want to have some fun with photos you can download Photo Story 3 for
free.
