    Can the "Replace or Skip Files Confirmation" window be changed to the way it was in Windows 7? The one on windows 10 is inconvenient and even at times confusing (Like when backing up text files from my hard drive to a flash drive into a fold of the same name)

    This is a support forum, not a complaints department.

    I suggest you directly submit your complaints about hardware to Nokia and software to Microsoft.



    Also it often helps to read reviews when switching platforms to make sure it suits your needs. From what you've said the Lumia 820 clearly doesn't suit you.

    What RSXforever wrote was a kind of review, that can help other people to judge, if Lumia is the right phone for them.

    Can the "Replace or Skip Files Confirmation" window be changed

    I also find this a step backwards.

    I do a lot of moving files around and often have to replace older versions.

    The XP-style copy/replace requestor was perfect:

    Is there any way to get this functionality back in Win 10 (probably via a 3rd party util)?

    Cheers,

    Mike.

    Not sure if presenting so many options is simpler or clearer...

    Yeah, but if the cat has to jump through hoops to get the job done isn't so great - the "XP" style display gives you all the info you need to know about the two files without having to investigate further. Might have to look into Tetracopy... Cheers, Mike.
