Problem moving folders
Has anyone, maybe a MVP, heard if or when Microsoft is going to fix the
problem with moving folders in the Windows Explorer? For example I have folders A, B, and C. Each had multiple subfolders. Assuming that a copy of A also exists in C and some files in A have been updated. If I attempt to move A to C I get some dialogs asking if I want to replace/skip/etc. I select to replace the files and folders and it appears to do so. However folder a Is still there with some of the subfolders move and others left. Moving A to C a second time correctly moves the folders. |

Your guess wasn't very good. It's still not fixed!
