In previous versions of windows, you would have to hold down the [Ctrl] key and fire multiple clicks to select several files. If you'd accidently miss a click, you would lose the entire selection and would have start all over again. But in Windows Vista, you can select multiple files by selecting the check boxes beside the file name, thus eliminating the risk of losing your entire selection. To do so, you would have to enable this feature in Vista.
Run ' My Computer ' or Simply hit the [Win Key] + [E] Combination
If your menus are hidden, hit the [Alt] Key.
From 'Tools' menu, select the 'Folder Options' option.
Click the 'View' Tab and Select the 'Use Check Boxes to select items' Check Box.
Once done, click 'OK'
