Windows 10: Copying files to a flash drive, only half copied before I accidentally disconnected....

Normally if you try to copy a list of files in a folder to another folder, and some of those files already exist, it will ask you if you want to replace/skip/copy. When my destination is an external drive however, it doesn't do that - it acts like the end result is going to be the size of the files on the drive + ALL the files I'm copying over, therefore not enough space... but there is enough space if it just skips the files already there.

Hopefully I explained that clearly enough. What can I do?

Java.nio.file - Copying files

You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one

Issue was the above, so thanks temp02.
