I have two methods of approach.
Presort AKA structure your files.
Example is I have a folder for each college I planned on going to. Each college has separate folders for every class etc.
Folder for Linux iso files or manuals, and folders for any project I have started.
Other than this you might try throwing your file locations into a database and comment what stuff is for especially if your not naming files well.
I also backup everything, then reinstall my OS to visually declutter.

YMMV
