Hi Ethel,

I have two suggestions:

First, I suggest getting Embrilliance Thumbnailer. It makes whatever organization you ultimately decide on SO much easier to do, because it makes your computer display images of your designs instead of generic images which make all your designs look the same. You could just get Thumbnailer and stop there, using the graphic view it generates to find any designs you are needing in the moment. You could also use Thumbnailer to help you organize your designs into folders by theme.

The other software I have used effectively to organize designs is called Buzz-Catalog. The newer version is calledBuzz Xplore: https://www.embroidery.com/product.ec?productsetID=...

Thanks for the question, Kim. To unzip the files, left click to select the zip file and then look for the word "extract" (you may need to right click). Click on the extract option and follow the prompts to unzip your files.
