Published by: Alex George on June 30, 2010
To transfer one file to another location on a Microsoft PC, we usually right click on the mouse after selecting the file. It will show us a list of places to where we can send the file using the 'Send to' option. This feature is available in all latest releases of Microsoft Operating systems and is known as Context Menu. This tutorial is for beginners who are not much familiar with Microsoft shortcuts. Here you can learn how to activate Extended Context Menu using keyboard and mouse.


Normally if you right click on a file and select Send To option in the menu, you will find the following options:

1. Compressed (Zipped ) Folder
