  1. I'm having trouble dragging photos from a folder to another folder


    I went from windows 7 to windows 10.

    Its not allowing me to do the old stuff. I save photos in a folder. When I drag them to another it will say I have files with the name, but they aren't the same photo. Windows 7 used to add a number like 1 or 2. I cannot find on Microsoft's site how to change it. I'm getting so angry at this new Windows 10. I collect all kinds of photos, but don't want to spend time renaming them. i just want to drag them from one folder to another and they rename the duplicates themselves. Someone please help!?

    :)

    Save photo folders

    Hello Cece,

    There are several ways for you to transfer your photos to your USB device. You can follow the steps provided below:

    • Plug-in the USB device to your computer.
    • Using File Explorer navigate to your photo folders and highlight them.
    • Click Move to and choose Choose location...
    • Then select the USB device you want to store your photo folders to.
    • Or, you can drag and drop the photo folders to the removable USB device location folder and it will copy the files to the destination folder.

    Let us know how it goes.

    I'm having trouble dragging photos from a folder to another folder

    Hidden folders

    I installed `Kane and Lynch` on my PC twice in Program Files(x86) folder but I can`t find them (2 folders with game). But free space on my HDD is lower. So there`re those folders on my hdd. I use option `unhide` hidden folders but still can`t find them. Any suggestions? How can i delete those hidden folders?

    When I run istallation for this game I can see those folders in Program Files(x86) folde.

    I`m using Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
