When I found the first option, folder, I ended up with that journal option. That was my problem. I'll need to look again but I when to the file menu and looked for new and pressed enter and folder was the first option.

Press enter. The first choice is folder, and it acts like Windows XP. there is a 'new journal document' which creates a file with the extension .jnt. You don't want that, though. Folder, on my submenu, is the first option. Good luck!
