Look for the PrtScn key located on the upper right side of your keyboard (you should see it after the F12 key). Now click the PrtScn key once. That's it, you've just taken a screen-shot of your desktop (no kidding). You're probably thinking, “Okay, great, now how do I make the screen-shot appear?”

To see your screen-shot, just open your graphics editor of choice and choose Paste from the edit menu (or hit Ctrl and the letter V on your keyboard). I use Irfanview to paste my screen-shots. It has a simple icon that you can click to paste the screen-shot (see image below). You can also use MS Paint (available in all versions of Windows) or Microsoft Word to paste the screen-shot.

Once you have your screen-shot in your program of choice, You're free to resize or edit it as you wish. Remember to save the image before you exit your graphics program if you want to share the screen-shot or would like to work on it again in the future.

If you'd like to replace (overwrite) the files that already exist all you have to do is click the Yes to All button. If however, you don't want to overwrite them, there is no obvious way to enable No to All.

Although it's hidden, there is a simple way to enable No to All so that you don't get bombarded with overwrite confirmations.

• Hold down the Shift Key while you click the No button and you will activate No to All for the current task:

This will allow you to keep any files that are already present without having to click no many times. You’ll be able to use this trick whenever you want to prevent constant pop-ups when moving or copying files with Windows Explorer.
