Listen! Here's How To Choose Many Files At Once On MacBook
JAKARTA Laptop users with Windows device systems are usually confused when they first want to move files from MacBook at once. Apart from the keyboard, the system of the device is different.
Actually, choosing all or some files at once on Finder is not difficult. Quoting from Makeuseof, the first way you can do it is to use the Shift button on the keyboard.
First, visit Finder and open the folder you want to select the file from. Then, change the display to Register, Colours, or Gallery mode. Make sure to select one of the three views because this method does not work for the Icon display.
Next, select the file at the first order, then press the Shift button and click the file at the last order you want. After doing this method, you can already move or delete multiple files at once.
