Export a file from Libre Office to an external HDD

slinga

As the title I want to export a file from Libre Office to an external HDD but can't remember how to do it.


I've done it before but now my mind is a blank.


Anyone help?


Thanks.

Hi,


try right click on file, should get a drop down send to option, choose your drive.

Three different ways:

1) open file into Libreoffice. "Save As" and browse to external drive.
2) find file on PC. Right-click -> Cut. go to external drive, right-click Paste.
3) right-click on file -> send to (external drive).

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

COPY, not cut. If you use cut and anything goes wrong when moving it you'll lose the original from the main hard drive. NEVER use cut for file operations.

Beat me to it, was just about to type something similar. I never use Cut and Paste if I can use Copy and Paste. For anything.
