  1. Copying files


    Good Day,


    When copying multiple files usually I do it in ctrl+A, and transferring it to another, is there an option where I can only paste new files and not the same files that are already there without transferring the new ones one by one?


    e.g. I Copied all1500 folders with files in A and pasted them to B which contains 1300 folders and files. What I want to happen is to have the 200 new folders and files pasted to B while the 1300 folders and files which are just the same with A won't copy, in just one click instead of pressing "Don't Copy" on each of the 1300 same files.


    Thank you!

    :)

    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

    how to copy files from the CD to the Computer drive

    Hi Hankriegler,

    I would suggest you to follow the steps below:


    • Press Windows key + X.

    • Click file explorer from the list.

    • Select the CD/DVD drive and hit Enter.

    • Select the files you want to copy from the CD/DVD, then select the drive where you want to paste or save.
    I hope the information is helpful.

    Thank you.
