    How to copy and paste but keep both the same file name file because Windows 10 has no such...


    I want to copy and paste files from my iPhone to an external hard drive disk by Windows 10. But, some files have the same file names. The Windows 10 Copy File Window shows only two options “Copy and Replace” and “Don’t copy”. How to copy and paste but keep both the same file name file by Windows 10? Thank you for your answer.

    :)

    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

    Gathering Names Of Multiple Files

    Is it possible to get the names of multiple files and paste them in to Notepad or Word or something?

    Not sure how clear that is - I've got a folder with lots and lots of films from holidays etc. I've spent ages renaming them all to something meaningful (Other than Mov0001, Mov0002 etc etc)
    Unfortunatly, at the time, I didn't think to copy and paste the names in to a file as I did each one. But now people want to know what things I've got - so I want a list of all the names without having to type each one out seperately.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks
