This is a pretty useful trick I cam across today on Lifehacker. If you’re using windows and if you’ve ever tried copying a lot of files from one place to another, chances are you have come across the confirm file replace dialog which generally gives you three options, ‘Yes‘, ‘No‘ and ‘Yes to All‘, however there was never a ‘No to All’ option. In the past I have sat there clicking No forever, however there is a hidden ‘No to All‘ option. If you keep the Shift key pressed when you click on ‘No‘, windows treats it as a ‘No to All‘!
Trust windows to hide something as useful as this.
Windows’ ‘No To All’ Option
