How to select multiple files in a folder

[PeoplesChoice]

I'd like to be able to select multiple files like I used to without using
the check boxes. Please tell me how?

Hold down CTRL (for selecting throughout a list in no particular order) or
SHIFT (sequential selection.)

Hold down the "CTRL" key as you click with the mouse.
{ the way it has been with all Windows versions }

If you have lost the Ctrl-select and Shift-select facility have a look

Thank you all for your responses. It should be a simple matter - but the
checkboxes have me screwed up.

you can probably go to control panel and select folder options in the view
tab uncheck the box that says use check boxes to select items.try that

Thanks - I hated those check boxes.

To remove the check boxes:
Control Panel > Appearance >Folder Options
View tab > Clear the 'Use check boxes to select items'.
