Is there a way to print out the contents of a page in
windows explorer? I sometimes burn a CD with legal
documents and want to record the contents of the CD. If I
could just print the window as it appears, that would be
fine.
Mitchell,
To print the active window as it's displayed, press Alt+PrtScn. This
copies the active window to the clipboard as a bitmap. You can then
paste the bitmap into a graphics editor such as paint, or a word
processor that has graphic capabilities (such as Word) and print the
screen from that application.
Alternatively, since you probably only want a listing of the file
names, you can use the command line DIR command to redirect its output
to a text file and then print that, or use a dedicated 3'rd party
utility such as ExpPrint

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, fully
supports Unicode (so it can print names that contain characters not
supported in the default code pages), and is only a small download.
ExpPrint is shareware, the only restriction on the non-registered
usage is that the Save settings capability is disabled. Other than
that it's fully functional.
