Solve : Select multiple items in Vista? |
|
Answer» What's my problem? Some folders in Vista do not allow mutiple items to be selected and copied/moved. The mouse will only select one item at a time. Selecting a SECOND item deselects the first. CTRL+A does nothing. Checkbox mode does not help either. So moving large quantities of files has to be done by hand one at a time. What do I want? I want to find a WAY to select and manipulate multiple files as I did in previous versions of WINDOWS. TIA Dramklukkel Windows Vista Home PREMIUM Hold down the CTRL key while left clicking on your choices... Quote from: dramklukkel on July 10, 2008, 04:43:48 AM What's my problem? What folders?

Shift and/or Ctrl don't do the trick as they used to. Quote from: drmsucks on July 10, 2008, 10:30:52 AM What folders? Various ones.
