If the website has a print button and you use Windows 10 you can always use the Microsoft Print to PDF printer and save the file to your desktop (or documents folder), then you have a PDF file which you can open in Acrobat Reader and print on a printer or save or email to somebpody.

Hi, David. Theoretically, you can save a webpage anywhere. The trick is that Internet Explorer, and sometimes other browsers, want to save information in the last folder in which you were working. So, for example, say I was last working in Music, and pasted something into the clipboard from there.

If I were to use CONTROL plus S to save a webpage to my computer, It would try to save that webpage in the Music folder, since that is where I last copied something from.

If you know how to use your "browse buttons, though, you can change where your browser is going to save a webpage or html document at any given time.

Hi, how are you? I should have asked if I can save information from a web page then send that information to my desktop. I'm trying to send my personal credit report information to my desktop so that I can print it out.
