    How to copy a list of subfolders from a folder to a system folder

    I needed to backup the list of subfolders in my system folders, e.g. Documents, Pictures etc., before Windows 10 was re-installed at a Microsoft store due to a problem that could not be repaired. I thought I was copying the system folders to a separate
    drive. Instead, the resulting system folders under Properties appeared as regular folders. I now need to restore the subfolders back to the system folders in one operation.



    Can I simply drag the regular folders on top of the system folders of the same name so that the system folders do not become regular folders or what is the correct procedure?

    Why does Windows 10 exit to parent folder up on dragging a file to a network folder?

    Your list is correct Shawn,

    The open 'subfolder' will step back into 'folder', with 'subfolder' selected in the list.

    This behaivour does not apply to local folders.

    Server is a regular Windows 7 PC.

    How to copy a list of subfolders from a folder to a system folder

    I was able to copy the Documents regular folder saved on the separate drive and pasted it onto the Documents system folder in the C drive. I was advised by a Microsoft representative that the copy and paste should place the subfolders directly under the
    system folder. Unfortunately, the Documents regular folder is now a subfolder in the Documents system folder.

    I would need to drag and drop each of the 30 subfolders onto the Documents system folder since I have not found a method to simply highlight all the subfolders as I would do with a list of files to do this in one operation.

    Do I need to use a console command to do this or is there another way? If a console command please provide one since I have not used the console for years.
