problem with him drag / drop files or folders

I used to be able to drag and drop files or folders to another folder and the original would not be removed from its original location IE. It has just been copied.  Now when I drag a file or folder, it is removed or cut from its original location.  How can I change this setting?

Hi djplexus,

If you drag an item between folders that are located on the same hard drive, then the items are moved so two copies of the same file or folder is not created on the same hard disk. If you drag the item to a folder that is located on a different hard disk (for example, a network location, for example), or on removable media like a CD, then the item is copied. In this way, the file or folder is not deleted from its original location.

  • "File > open recent" does not work.    Second problem: impossible to drag individual files or folders, from one place to the other.

    I recently installed Lightroom 6 (stand-alone version).  I have two separate issues: firstly the "file > open recent" does not work.  The cottage my last files but when I click on one of them, nothing happens (don't close the existing catalog, nothing new opens).

    Second problem: I can't drag individual files or folders, from one place to another within the section "Files" from the library.  I did this on a regular basis with older versions of LR so I know how it's done - it does everything just not in this new version.

  • Why don't I do drag and drop files in folders?

    Good so since I've reinstalled my computer I got in trouble on him drag / drop files into any kinds of files. I am able to copy and paste, delete and drag the files that were on my desk and move them, but I can't move all files in a folder. So I'm able to move anything in folders and desktop, but not able to move them to another location, unless if I copy and paste. I scanned for malicious things, did all the tests of virus and other things and still nothing. I searched on how to solve this problem, but nobody seems to have a problem like mine. Maybe a few, but none of the answers that were given on other forums for other people has not worked for me. If anyone can help me? And yes I checked if the box for customizing the taskbar if the drag and drop was allowed and he had checked them already. Please can someone help me?

    Hi Gmgregster16,

    1. what exactly happens when you drag - move? You get the error message?
    2. you have to any other user account? The problem persists in the other user account?

    Step 1: We recommend you to check if the problem persists in safe mode.
    a. see start the computer in safe mode
    b. check if the problem persists.

    Step 2: If the problem persists in safe mode, and then register a new user account
    see How to create and configure the user accounts in Windows XP .
    b. connecting to a new user account and check if the problem persists.

  • Drag drop files always in temp\VMwareDND which is a symptom of the problem?

    I realized for the first time as the files that are Drag'n dropped from OS X to Windows VM apparently first go to ~ \Appdata\Local\Temp\VMwareDND.

    I noticed this only because:

    I dropped a WORD DOC file on the WINDOWS desktop.  I then opened it in MS WORD.  When I tried to make a BACKUP-from Word, the target folder that appeared in the Save dialogue was... \VMwareDND, no office!

    This DOC file is still in VMwareDND.

    Out of curiosity, I tried to drag / drop files more. These files later are NOT now in VMwareDND. But the first file I have slipped and fallen still exists in VMwareDND.

    Why does the first file in VMwareDND like the rest of the files?

    Was there a problem that the file has been copied from OS X to WINDOWS?

    Should I be worried that maybe the file was not copied correctly? This file was only a 5 page doc, but I am concerned about large binary files.

    Fusion 3.0.0 OS X 10.5.6 Windows Server 2008.

    Hello

    As the files that are drag ' n dropped go via the folder %TEMP% windows is by design.

    It also means that if you try to DND a file that is larger than the space available on the unit that contains only your temporary folder will fail to copy.

    If I remember correctly you can get around this by changing the file folder in your installation of windows to use another drive.

    In regard to the original not getting file not deleted, it is difficult to say. Don't have youby accident registered there in MS Word?

    It could be a bug that animates its not deleted in the temporary folder after copy successful using DND, but it is not a great problem because the temp folder is deleted when you select 'Disk cleanup' in the context menu properties under.

    There are also opportunities under profiles to delete the contents of the temp folder when you restart your guest.

    Hope this helps,

    I could do this drag-and-drop in Acrobat 9 Pro, but it doesn't seem to work in Acrobat Pro XI.

    As try67 said, I have not found a way to have the use of the A9 a different name. On a Mac, because the destination folder is "just there" the most straightforward approach is to highlight the file Untitled Pages.pdf extracted, press ENTER, and then type (or paste) the new name.

  • a problem with one of the files in the TestStand\AdapterSupport\LabVIEW directory

    When looking at the module a LabVIEW VI called for TestStand, I get the following message:

    A problem with one of the files in the TestStand\AdapterSupport\LabVIEW directory.  Please reinstall or repair.

    I made the mistake of cleaning C: in my computer.  Clean the C:\National Instruments downloads

    Why would someone put bits of applications or modules, etc. in such a directory?

    I'm not too crazy about restoring 11FR in this folder.  It's just crazy!

    If anyone has encountered this before?  No "easy"? outside re - install TS...

    Side note: I do not touch anything in the \Program files. National Instruments\TestStand\AdapterSupport\LabVIEW

    What version of LabVIEW and TestStand do you use?

    In 2012, TestStand, this directory is mapped to:

    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\National Instruments\TestStand 2012\AdapterSupport\LabVIEW

    Have you tried mass compiling the screws in this folder?

    I had to create a new 'TestStand - default values XX.llb"file, where XX is the last version of LabVIEW you use, but I have not seen this message before.

    Good luck

  • Problems with the published html file

    Hi, I am a beginner using Adobe animate. I managed to do design an interactive infographic to incorporate into a Web site. But I have a problem with the published html file. The html file is generated, but when I click it, only a blank page opens on my internet browser. As far as I understand it, computer graphics itself should open in the browser. Can someone please advise what I could do wrong?

    Thanks a lot for your help!

  • Problem with a menu drop-down dynamics based on instances of subform

    I'm having a problem with a dynamic drop down based on instances of subform.  Here's my question:

    Subform1 = value 1 and is repeatable
    Subform2 = Subform1 to 1 and is repeatable
    Subform2 = value 2 to Subform1
    Subform2 = value 3 to Subform1

    Subform1 = value 2 and is repeatable
    Subform2 = Subform1 to 1 and is repeatable
    Subform2 = value 2 to Subform1
    Subform2 = value 3 to Subform1

    I can fill my first run down the 1 subform values by the following:

    var nCount = Subform1.instanceManager.count;
    Console.println ("nCount:" + nCount);


    for (var i = 0; i < = nCount; i ++)
    {
    var vFld = xfa.resolveNode ("Subform1 [" + i + "]");
    vVal var = vFld.Val.rawValue;
    this.addItem (vVal);
    }


    It gives me 1 (Subform1) value and the value 2 (Subform1)

    I'm now trying to fill a second drop down based on this drop down selection.

    For example:

    If the value 2 (Subform1) is selected in the drop down, I want the secodn drop-down is populated with the value 1 (Subform2) and the value 2 (Subform2) and 3 (Subform2) value for 2 value Subform1.

    I appriciate any help I could get on it.

  • Strange problem with export to jpg files

    I'm having a strange problem with exporting my vector files to jpg.  When I export the file as a .jpg file, then open it some text or shapes (such as rectangles or squares) have disappeared.  When I go back and open the file .ai the stuff is there, but he just went on the jpg.  If I open the .ai file in Photoshop it's gone too.  I have to save the file in pdf format, then open the PDF in Photoshop and export in a file .jpg away.  It's very strange.  If I go into the Illustrator file and re - type the text disapers, it usually fixes the problem.  I'm not an expert with Illustrator, then I can do something wrong, if anyone can help please let me know, thanks!

    My HP just installed automatic updates and then I couldn't access my Microsoft Office files! I went back to the point files and its fine, but I'm afraid to leave my computer to install updates again! What is going on! What should I do?

    (FYI - I have an old version of Microsoft Office - I think that it's 2007)

    Sometimes there are problems with the microsoft updates that can cause this kind of problem, but most of the time that Microsoft will come with a patch or a patch for this update soon...

    Can someone help

    Hello tneil,

    Well, I found the problem and a solution.

    The thing is: my project was not limited by the size, this is the number of files (200).
    I realized that BB has released an SDK 2.0 (I used 1.5) and I tryied to compile with the 2.0 and everthing works fine!
    The problem is how bbwp.exe communicate with rapc.exe, maybe he tryies to send files by command line and it has a limit. With the new sdk, it uses a file temp with all orders. This is why it works.

    The maximum size of 7MB, I can't say anything, because my apps are about 3-4 MB. But good to know, if I can put in my documentation.

    That's all.
