Backing up Music files on Data CD's?

Once again my computer is letting me down and I've had to back up all my music files onto CD-RW's as I don't have an external hard drive. After I've restored my computer, how can I put files back on without having to create a new folder for each file?!

Hope someone can help me!! Thank you xxx

    All you have to do is copy the indiv music files onto the cd without the compete path.

    Frankly, I'd leave them on the cd because an accumulation of music, vids, and pics can fill up a hard drive.

    How is your computer letting you down? What's the problem?

    Open the destination location that you want.Left click on Explore in the Cd. Right click Edit and Select All then left click and Drag and Drop to destination location. Keep the cd in case you lose them again.

    You can put them onto CD in the same folder as you had them on the computer, saves messing.

    IF YOU HOLD DOWN THE CONTROL BUTTON ON THE MOST LEFT HANDSIDE OF THE KEYBOARD AND THEN CLICK EACH FILE YOU CAN THEN DRAG THEM ALL IN ONE GO RATHER THEN MOVING EACH ON INDIVIDUALLY. HOPE THIS HELPS
