I found six different threads on six different sites where people asked this question and the answer is always "You only need erf files if you plan on making modules so don't worry about those."

That doesn't really answer the question, so... where the heck do .erf files go? Haha

Do I have to make an erf folder or what?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

They don't need to go in any particular place. If you're going to make modules, put them wherever you want, and when you go to import the contents into the toolset you can navigate to them wherever you put them, import the contents, and then you can delete them if you don't plan to use them again, because the contents are now in your module. If you're not going to make modules, of course, they go in the recycle bin.

Well that explains it! Thanks!

for purely organizational reasons I'd still suggest saving them to the erf folder, since it's there

I'd say treat them the same way you'd treat any zipped resources you download, because even though ERFs aren't compressed, they're just containers like zip files that are used to transfer files from one module to another. I personally keep things like that stored elsewhere, unzip/extract what I need into the module when I need it, and avoid having redundant copies cluttering up the folder.
