Highlight the files, done Windows double job with them to the same folder. Huh?

So often, when I copy files, I note several if I do not quickly, Windows (XP 64-bit) is suddenly double job with them in the same folder.  Usually when I'm using the control button and clicking several with my mouse.  Is this a bug?  Not sure who in their right mind would want this feature.  How can I get rid of this constant irritation?

Hello 2vsllsk,

Thanks for the reply.  If you select multiple files, then right-click to copy, are you able to duplicate this issue?  You use a mouse or a touchpad for laptop computer?

Please let us know status.

Also, how to prevent unwanted automatic copies when I select several files?

  • "The file archive part... need around in the same folder.

    Try to download first and Photoshop Elements, let him do his own thing. It says "archive file part of... is missing... put in the same folder... download all parts. I saw the answer "put .7z and .exe in the same folder" but how? This is a brand new computer and I'm still getting used to the place where everything is hidden. I would have thought that the download would automatically put things in the right places.

    Catherine,

    To install Photoshop or Premiere Elements for windows, you will need to download the exe and 7z files. They usually end up by ISO download folder unless you specify otherwise.  Just make sure you put the two files in the same folder and double-click the exe file to install. Don't forget to download the version appropriate depending on whether machine you 32-bit or 64-bit.

  • Help! Difficulty my javascript to save a bmp with suffix in the same folder as the previous record.

    Here are my javascript classes:

    #target photoshop

    sets the preferences of the document to inches

    app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES

    Our values for the RESULT FINAL width and height (in inches) of our image

    var fWidth = 11.73;

    var fHeight = 5.97;

    var CurrentDLPFile = app.activeDocument

    var CurrentDLPFileName = CurrentDLPFile.name

    var CurrentDLPFilePath = "~/Desktop/fetch".

    var f = File.saveDialog ("Save where?'," ");

    where we double clicked on the file

    app.bringToFront ();

    resizes the canvas to 11.73 x 5.97 inches

    CurrentDLPFile.resizeCanvas (UnitValue (fWidth, "in"), UnitValue (fHeight, 'in'));

    flattens all the layers

    CurrentDLPFile.flatten ();

    saves to the photoshop file

    If (f! = null) CurrentDLPFile.saveAs (f, undefined);

    split channels

    CurrentDLPFile.splitChannels ();

    Also converts active K bitmap image separation

    var bitsaveoptions = new BitmapConversionOptions()

    bitsaveoptions. Method = BitmapConversionType.HALFTONESCREEN

    bitsaveoptions.angle = 45

    bitsaveoptions. Frequency = 55

    bitsaveoptions. Resolution = 300

    bitsaveoptions. Shape = BitmapHalfToneType.ROUND

    app.activeDocument.changeMode (ChangeMode.BITMAP, bitsaveoptions);

    THIS I'm HAVING PROBLEMS - I want to save the file (which at this point is a bmp), with a suffix of 1 in the same folder. IS WHERE and then close the file.

    var doc = app.activeDocument;

    var Nomdoc = doc.name;

    docName = docName.match(/(.*) (-.) [ ^\.] +)/) ? docName = docName.match(/(.*) (-.) [ ^\.] +) /): docName = [docName, docName];

    var = "_1" suffix

    var saveName = new File(decodeURI(doc.path)+'/'+docName[1]+suffix+'.bmp');

    function saveFile (app.activeDocument, saveName);

    I thought about it, this is for someone else who is struggling with a similar problem:

    var CurrentDLPFile = app.activeDocument

    saves the active doc as a photoshop file

    If (f! = null) CurrentDLPFile.saveAs (f, undefined);

    renames the active document for everything that has been saved

    var CurrentDLPFile = app.activeDocument.name

    assign the location of the saved psd

    var psdPath = activeDocument.path

    saveBMP = new BMPSaveOptions();

    saveBMP.alphaChannels = false;

    saveBMP.depth = BMPDepthType.ONE;

    saveBMP.flipRowOrder = false;

    saveBMP.rleCompression = false;

    saveBMP.osType = OperatingSystem.WINDOWS;

    var doc = app.activeDocument;

    var Name = doc.name.replace (/ \.) [ ^\.] +$/, '');

    var suffix = "1";

    var saveFile = File (psdPath + "/" + name + suffix ".bmp");

    activeDocument.saveAs (saveFile, saveBMP, true, Extension.LOWERCASE);

    activeDocument.close (SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);

    I have encoutered something strange in windows 7. I have 2 files with exactly the same name, and the files are also in the same folder. When you open one of them and saving them without warning are given this file already exists.

    Library...

    Right click on the first file .ppt > Properties > check what's next to place:

    Do the same for the second file. Because the location is the same?

    Probably not... Library is not a folder, it's something different. It shows you file stored in any location specified in the settings of the library. In the left pane you can right-click Documents in libraries > properties > and you will notice that you have listed several locations. Two 'identical' files may appear in the library, but they have a different location on your hard drive.

  • Why are some of my file names have black fonts and some in the same folder have blue fonts?

    In the same folder, some of my file names appear suddenly in blue font and others in black letters. What is the meaning of the different colored fonts?

    Open Windows Explorer.  Click Tools > folders and select the view tab.  Scroll down to "Display encrypted or compressed NTFS files in color" selected?  Change the display of the Explorer WIndows if you change this option?  Generally, the encrypted files are shown in green and compressed files (i.e. zip files) are indicated in blue, while the normal files are represented in black.  They can also be colored differently if they are on a different partition or files have been created while the computer is connected to a different domain.

  • How can I download multiple files or documents in the same folder of destination without redirecting every time?

    I often download 20 or if another company system files and save them in the same folder on my hard drive. Is there a way to "fix" the destination for files or documents folder when I download?

    Hi BruceBear,

    When you download files, Windows usually saves in the downloads folder, which is located under your user name in the users folder on the drive where Windows is installed (for example C:\Documents and Settings\nom of utilisateur\Mes Documents\Downloads).

    When you save the file, you can choose to save it in a different folder. By default, some file types are saved in different folders. For example, if you right-click on an image on a Web page and then choose Save picture as on the menu, the image will be saved in the default photos folder.

    You cannot specify a particular folder to be the destination for downloads.

  • LR: Export or publish LR folder with subfolders to HD with the same folder structure

    It is in fact an enhancement request that I post here because I found no option in the web site for the enhancement requests.

    In Lightroom, I would like to have a way to export or publish a Lightroom folder with subfolders to a hard drive for export or publishing retains the same folder structure, including file names and subfolder. My idea is to create a JPG of all my raw files edited in another drive outside of Lightroom. If I move images autour, change file names, or do further editing in any image, I'd like it to appear on the external copy. Theoretically, I should be able to publish my albums directory and all subdirectories of my would be automatically included and copied to the external hard drive.

    Lightroom has currently a way to publish on a hard drive, but it is a feature of dish (of level) publication, for the moment.
