    I cannot move, copy or rename my files. They are video files. I can play them.


    Recently I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I had three disk partitions. C Drive, D Drive and E Drive. Windows is installed in C Drive. After upgrade D Drive became E Drive and E Drive became F Drive. I can't move, copy or rename files and folders in these drives. Also, I am not able to create new folders. Whenever I try the same thing happens, "You need permissions from Users to rename this file." I am the only user of this PC and there is only one user account created. Please help me.

    :)

    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

    I cannot move, copy or rename my files. They are video files. I can play them.

    Play an incomplete avi file?

    divfix might be able to help, if not, and VLC and the other suggestions don't work it might just be impossible for your files. Are you sure they're avi files for example, check them out with g-spot. Sometimes funny people rename rar files to avi and such.
