How to say “No to all”
When doing an operation that involves many files, you will sometimes encounter a message like the one shown in the figure below. Although it has a button “Yes to All”, there is a no button for “No to All”. For example, you may want to copy all the files in a folder to a backup folder but only want to copy the new ones that you have added. Although this can be done on the command line with xcopy or by using a program like the freeware Replicator, it is sometimes more convenient to just use the Windows copy command. Fortunately, there is a trick that in effect provides a “No to All” command; hold down the “Shift” key when you click the “No” button in the dialog box.
