Help! Opening multiple files at once

    I'm trying to open multiple files (20 or more) HTML files all at once (this can be applied to any file) but it's not working:

    - I selected all of the files, then right clicked, then opened but only one opens not all. How do I fix this? It worked before..

    Thanks :)

    What program are you opening the files in? dreamweaver? wordpad? nano? or what...

    try selecting them all and just hit enter to open them all -- but make sure your default editor for .html files is notepad first.
