How to save my holiday photos on my computer

[Want-to-know]

Can anybody tell me how to save my holiday photos on my computer? I had 4 rolls of fils printed at Snappy Snaps and when I inserted my dvd into my computer, an NKC CD Viewer came up. It does not allow me to save photos other than one at a time and I have some 140 to save.

Is there a quick way of saving earch roll at a time.

Thanks.

If you use Windows Explorer you should be able to view all the images on the DVD. You'd then be able to copy all the files to your hard disk.

Plowter has answered your question but, in case you still need further information, I'll try to elaborate:

Basically, you need to have the DVD in your drive, without the viewing program running. To do this, you can do one of the following:
a) insert the DVD as normal. Wait for the program to boot, then close it; or
b) insert the DVD with the shift key held down. (That should cancel the 'autorun' feature).

The next step is to right-click on the DVD drive icon and select 'explore'. You'll then be able to see the contents of the DVD. There should be a folder which contains all of your photos. (If in doubt, double-click on any likely folder, in order to view its contents).

To copy the folder to a suitable location on your PC, simply click-and-drag the folder to where you want it to be. Alternatively, right-click on the folder icon and select 'copy'. Then navigate to where you want the folder to appear, right-click and select 'paste'.

(PS: If you'd rather copy just the contents of the folder, rather than the folder itself, double-click on the folder, and go to Edit > Select All. Then drag-and-drop (or right-click and select 'copy'), as above.
