Saving a Document (File > Save As…)Now you need to save the file just in case your computer crashes. The first time you save your file you use "Save As.." to give it a name and put it in a place. If you have saved a file in Windows before, than this window should look familiar to you. Be sure to name your file so it makes sense to you and save it as a .PSD
Once you have done this you can now use (File > Save) to save your work.
