Files


Question Posted Monday October 29 2007, 1:36 pm

Is there any way to move everything in multiple different files to one place..
I mean like if you have a file with files in it, and things in the files, is there any way to move all the things in the big file to one place, deleting the sub-files.

And I mean in like one go, instead of going into each file, moving the stuff, and then deleting the files


Thanks.

Go to edit, select all. Right click any folder there and "cut". "Paste" it to where you want it.

With all files selected, you can CTRL+click any file to unselect it. Even when you don't use "select all", CTRL+click can be used to select more than one file.

Select one file. Now SHIFT+click a file a few spaces on. All files between them are selected.

Click and hold an empty space. Move the mouse and "lasso" all wanted files.

In the command prompt(start, run, cmd), the commands "move" "copy" and "xcopy" will be useful.
