cipx2 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Of course. I see that you already have the solution. Just replace the word "place" with the word "copy" in your 1st sentence Or have a look at this: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 If it's just PDFs like the version i have, just copy them across. works for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Yep - got the whole lot on the HD and a small folder with shortcuts to each. Note that it will place an icon on the desktop but this will only load whichever one you used last! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cipx2 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 That's because the default setting for folders is to hide the so called "known extension" of files and you didn't change that. "exe" being one of the most "known" file extensions, the explorer hides it from you Don't mind that, if you found the icon that starts the application, you're home.

western Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 to find the .exe icon, go into the folder you saved it to, right click the LR green oval named RAVE & send to desktop as a shortcut, works for me, I saved the disk with the Defender stuff on to a folder called RAVE Defender & with that created another folder for the 2nd disk info & called that Discovery RAVE. works fine on both PC's, if I want the Disco stuff I just open the Defender first then use the open new folder icon on the toolbar.
