ReplyDeleteIf you don't know how to do all this in win 7 let me know and i will tell you.
For send to, you open send to folder on your PC and add inside all that you need to " send to " and this is all.
The best way to find "Send to " folder is, to use Aida or Everest app ;)
Still the best OS is XP, win 7 is only update of Vista and is the same crapy system.
