Is there any way to print the contents of a File Explorer
(Windows Explorer) window without doing a screen print?
There are more files in my directory than fit on the
screen; I'd like to capture them in one document. I can't
see a way to do it. Suggestions?
 
See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=321379 or

open a command prompt and use the dir or tree command

e.g.

dir > c:\temp\directory.txt

tree > c:\temp\directory.txt

use the cd (change directory command) to select which folder you want to get
the listing for.

all of these commands support the use of /? to get the Help information

e.g.
dir /?

Further to Bruce's comments, if you'd like something
that's more integrated with Explorer, have a look at a 3'rd party
add-on such as ExpPrint http://www.jddesign.co.uk/.

ExpPrint is an Explorer extension that gives you a "Print Directory
Listing" context menu option when you select any combination of file
folder, disk drive, or files - including the Search results list. It
has quite a comprehensive sorting and layout capability, and fully
supports Unicode (so it can print names that contain characters not
supported in the default code pages).
