When you try to copy a group of files from one folder to another,
Windows will bring up a handy little window if it notices files in the
target directory with the same name as files from the source directory.
You can manually choose which files to overwrite or leave be one by
one. Or you can click "Yes to All" to effectively overwrite every file
with a duplicate name in the target directory.
But
what if you want to click "No to All?" There's no button for you, but
that doesn't mean Windows won't let you skip all the duplicate files.
All you have to do is hold down the Shift key and click No. Now Windows
will skip all files with duplicate names and copy the rest of your
files to the new directory, thus saving you a lot of time, heartache,
and repetitive finger motions.
