Post subject:  Saving PC data onto an external Hard Disc?

I have a portable external hard disc, and a desktop PC using W7.
How do I save the PC data onto it?
How do I save the screen data onto it - I have numerous "short cut" apps there?
Thanks in advance
Amos.

- connect it to PC
- if it ask to format - do it, use NTFS kind of file system
- if not, go to Windows Explorer (W+e short key stroke)
- drag and drop your desired folder (Documents, Pictures, etc)

Thanks Sergio.
But how do I do that for what appears on the PC's screen when I turn it on?
i.e. where do I find the file of that?

Look for "Desktop" in the same place as you look for Documents, Photos etc.

Not used W7 for years … not sure if I'm keep some of PC with the version …
When you will run WinExplorer, navigate on C: drive from a top of file system's tree (open tree mode) and you'll see a folder My Documents, dig into it.
