    Fix for source and destination have the same name message


    I am running windows 10 on my Toshiba laptop and when I tried to drag a file to my dvd-rw I kept getting the destination and source are the same message but I found if you open file explorer and scroll down to your cdrw or dvdrw drive and open it then drag the file to the box to the right of your drive and then right click on your dvdrw to the left and then click on burn to disc... It's worked every time for me...

    :)

    Robocopy Destination Naming Confusion

    I use a program with a GUI (Graphical User Interface) that does the same thing as RoboCopy. It's called FastCopy
    FastCopy

    If you go to the link, look at the picture at the right.
    You got a Source folder, a Destination folder, and a drop down list that let's you copy and overwrite, or copy and only copy over the different items, etc...

    Yet here are the options that I have to save data from one folder to another:

  3. Robocopy Destination Naming Confusion

    My command is:
    Code:
    Have I made an error again?

    Earlier I tried to run a similar command as User.
    It produced a destination file named “Documents”.

    So I tried again as PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>
    I got the same results on the destination side. “Documents.”

    Thinking I had missed something I went to delete the destination “Documents” folder and try again.

    At..Aare you sure you want to delete... the prompt showed the correct folder name "HP.Files."

    So why is W10 changing my specified destination name in the properties and destination, and keeping it for the delete operation?

    I still had the first User run on a different drive. Same problem: a conflict between the destination displayed name and the Properties name, and the name in the delete operation.

    How can I get the right name to appear in the destination?

    Everything else beside the name seems to working okay.

    Thanks for any thoughts and suggestions.
