I prefer to copy files to a folder , and then delete the original if a move is what I wanted . The reason for this is ... I have moved files before from one location to another , and halfway through something has gone wrong ... you end up with a partially copied file , and a currupted |( sometimes ) original file . On this very subject I wanted to find a program that could copy numerous files from one location to another . The problem with copying multiple files in windows is that sometimes the process will stop with an error , and you have to start right over . The program I use is called TeraCopy . If you copy multiple files from one location to another and an error occurs , you just click "skip file " , and the copy process continues for the rest of the files . Would you please look at this Gilles and tell the people what you think ... I find it very very useful , and I hope you , and your viewers do too . Many thanks my friend ... keep up the great work :)
I have a new Lenovo running Windows 11. I remember (forever) having drop downs in my Navigation Pane where I could open each folder and just click and paste files all over the place (like you have in this video). I see those "drop downs" are no longer there. Is there some way to get them back?
I need to know how to take a photo I have in a folder and copy it to a website. Everytime I try instead of going to the right place it just opens up in a new tab on my browser. I have tried copy & paste, and dragging it to the box on the website for photos.
Is it possible to pin the most useful commands (buttons) like "Cut", "Copy", "Paste" and any other button from Ribbon to the very top bar? So it would be convenient to always have direct access to them even if Ribbon is closed. In Windows 8 you can pin any button from Ribbon to the top bar.
Is there a way I can decide where to move a file, from the opened file? I mean, not from Microsoft but from the program I use to open a file? In this case, which program please?
photos and vids on windows 10 seem to go everywhere i don't ask them to? I seem to find them again by accident? Especially if i trim videos they get saved not in the media player but back in photos and not even videos? Now i've got multiple copies in all different places... disasster
Thank you for making this easy!!!! I had lost mine and went on Microsoft community and they make it so complicated and frustrating!!! Lucky I found your video! Again, thank you for making this so easy!
But the problem is that the photos, after I either drag and drop OR cut and paste, STILL KEEP APPEARING in the previous folder. I am like Sisyphus rolling the rock... I will never be finished moving photos. Can you help?
It was suggested that in preparation for wiping my HD I should select and move all my files from my windows 10 PC to an external drive, then, with my utilities disk(s) and windows 10 install disk handy, reformat the drive to ensure all nasty viruses, etc. has been removed. Then I can copy my files back to my PC, and reinstall all programs. Does this seem to be a sound method of getting rid of any stubborn viruses?
Thank you for this. I just wanted to know something... This is for music folders.... In the first column I have "Name" and then in the next column "Contributing artist" but want to find the Contributing artist (do to a massive search) but when I'm in the search bar, it will only find the name of the song. Doesn't matter where I try to search for it, nothing comes up. Any help will be greatly appreciated
I just bought a Windows 10 PC stick with 32 Gbs of storage. The OS itself occupies nearly 17 Gbs, leaving just 14 Gbs of free storage. So I have installed a USB drive D for extra storage. The problem is when I download files from the Internet, like Kodi, they are going straight to internal drive C, rather than to drive D, where I want these files to be and taking up chunks of my already limited internal storage. So, could you give any tips on how I can download all internet files directly to the USB flash drive?
I have a question for you when I connect my sd card, I transfer the pictures to my folder but the question that I have is: how do I delete the pictures/video from that sd card after transfer?

I am having trouble finding info on this issue. I have taken pictures from my web cam But I can never find them on the computer. Where are the files saved when you take a web cam pic from the Pc. I have Windows 10
Beware: if you drag and drop from one hard drive to another, c to e, it only makes a link the the files in c, it does not move them! Therefore you may think you have duplicates, and if you delete them on c, they are gone.
Recently downloaded an HP program for my printer. The icon is on my desktop and the program is listed on C Drive under "Program Files" as an "Application". It's also listed in my Downloads folder as an "Application". Here's the dumb question -- if I delete this from the Downloads folder listing, will this delete the program (which I don't want to do)? Or do I have to keep it in the Downloads folder forever? Anyone? (using Windows 10)
How do I stop windows 10 from moving my pictures into the Pictures folder? This is a new computer. I move my files into a work folder and windows decides it doesn't belong there and moves it. It needs to stop.

how do i select all my photos at once on windows 10 and move them to my pic file?
Ann Rose. That's my question. He may have explained that here however.
you can either hold down left mouse button and just mark everything or you can press ctrl+a and it will mark everything.
Right-click --> Sort By --> Type --> then select all the pictures under the images type and cut and paste them into the pictures folder.
