Move Folder/Files bug

V

vbtrek

I don't know whether this has already been reported but here goes anyway. If
you move "Folder A" to "Folder B" which already contains a "Folder A", vista
prompts you if you want to replace the folder, then prompts you if you want
to replace the file(s). Once the move process completes the original folder
is left in the source location (but all files have been moved).

This only occurs if there are files in the source and destination (I belive
at least 1 has to match).

Oh yeah, that is a known (and very irritating) issue that has had many
people up in arms.
