Well, I thought I could.
This is about some of the hassles you get with Windows Vista, and how to make that $%#%*& Send To work. It's not as obvious as it once was.
It's a matter of finding the Send To folder. On Vista, this has been moved around a bit. And there's a Trap: if you search for the Send To folder, Vista swears it is not there, although it is. Why is that so? Probably some simple explanation, but this is a good illustration of the many frustrations MicroSoft inflicts on the world.
The answer: the Send-To folder is located on the system disk (usually System (C:)), as follows:
Users> (username)> AppData> Roaming> Microsoft> Windows> Send To
- just in case you thought they might do something lucid!
(Microsoft's knowledge base articles on this differ (of course) between XP and Vista, so if you're caught reading a replication of the wrong instructions, there's double frustration. And even with the right version, MS goes the hard way, recommending Start > Search box > "shell:sendto" to get access to it. It puts this instruction in advance of the simpler approach, of course.)
