download Photos from Shared photo stream on a PC windows

Hi,

I shared some iCloud photo stream with my wife who is using a windows PC. According to the FAQ of Photo stream (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486 : Can photos be saved or downloaded from a shared photo stream?), people with whom I shared the photo can download them, and window user can copy any photo to any folder. However, when my wife is looking the shared photo stream, their isn't any option to save or copy the files. It is also impossible to dragg and dropp the picture to an other folder.

So, how to copy photo from shared photo stream onto a Windows PC computer?

Thanks.

Rather than navigating to your shared photo stream folder via the "Photo Stream" link in the favorites section of your explorer window, try going to it via your Pictures folder (user/My Pictures/Photo Stream/Shared). If I navigate to my shared photo stream folders that way, I can copy or move the pictures like normal.
