    Full path mname of a file?

    Another elementary question re new (to me) W8.1 desktop. --- I SaveAs a screenshot as pink.jpeg. How do I determine its full path name so that I can designate it as an attachment?

    More generally, how can I call up the full path of any file I am viewing?

    Thanks. ...wdc

    If you can see the file in an Explorer windows or on the desktop, you can right-click on it and select properties. I also change the Windows Explorer setting to always Display Full Path in Title Bar.

    While on the Windows 8.1 Start Screen, start typing pink and you should see your "pink.jpeg" listed under where you are typing.

    Right-click that "pink.jpeg", select "Open file location" and you should now see your "pink.jpeg" in Windows Explorer.

    If you don't have the path turned on at the top of Windows Explorer, right-click "pink.jpeg", select "Properties".

    Under the General tab, next to the "Location: " you should see the complete path where your "pink.jpeg" file is located.
