How do I print the actual files or folder list as I see
on the screen???? I want to print them out so I can use
them as a quick label on my backup CDs.
To print the active window as it's displayed, press Alt+PrtScn. This
copies the active window to the clipboard as a bitmap. You can then
paste the bitmap into a graphics editor such as paint, or a word
processor that has graphic capabilities (such as Word) and print the
screen from that application.
Alternatively, since you probably only want a listing of the file
names, you can use the command line DIR command and redirect its
output to a text file and then print that from Notepad, or use a
dedicated 3'rd party utility such as ExpPrint
http://www.jddesign.co.uk/.
ExpPrint is an Explorer extension that gives you a "Print Directory
Listing" context menu option when you select any combination of file
folder, disk drive, or files - including the Search results list. It
has quite a comprehensive sorting and layout capability, fully
supports Unicode (so it can print names that contain characters not
supported in the default code pages), and is only a small download.
ExpPrint is shareware, the only restriction on the non-registered
usage is that the Save settings capability is disabled. Other than
that it's fully functional.
