In this article, we will tell you how you can print multiple files at once in Windows 10. We will not ask you to install any new software but use the out of box functionality available in Windows 10.

You need to remember 2 points before you proceed to print files:

File types like .exe, .mp3, .mp4, .mov, .zip are not printable, the can be called non-paper friendly.
File of same type can only be together. That's means you can print all .jpg files or .docx together but cannot select .jpg file along with .docx to print.

If your website can be accessed with and without www then its considered having duplicate pages. If you have ever integrated the "facebook like" button on your website pages, try accessing the page with www and without www; you will notice different like counts displayed on the pages. To prevent these duplicate pages on your website, you can redirect non-WWW traffic to WWW or vice-versa using mod_rewrite in your .htaccess file.

Force Files to Download Instead of Showing Up in the Browser

Sometimes you may have noticed that when you click on a download link, the file shows up in one browser while in some other browser it gets downloaded. Internet Explorer will usually try to show Microsoft Word files (doc and docx) in the browser, while most other browsers will download it. If the browser supports a file it shows up the file else it downloads the file. Image files like png, gif, jpg almost always show in the browser. Archive files like zip, tar, and gzip almost are always downloaded.

Today I had to fix an issue in a new website of my client. I opened FilZilla and tried to add the FTP details of the site by going to File >> Site Manager. I add the "Host" details, selected protocol as "FTP", login type "Normal", added the "User" and "Password", and then finally clicked on "Connect" button. Guess what happened, I was able to connect to the site - "No". A pop up appeared saying "Filezilla is running in kiosk mode. "Normal" and "Account" logintypes are not available in this mode".
