    Multiple Folders not copying and Pasting.


    I just updated to Windows 10 PRO Build 18363.592 Version 1909. When I try to copy 4 or 5 folders from one location to the other, nothing happens. I have to copy one folder at the time. This is very annoying. Is there any fix for this?


    Thanks

    :)

    Can't copy and paste multiple folders

    Hey all. I'm having problems copying multiple folders from an external disk to my laptop (running WIndows 10). The folders contain mp3 files, they're not especially large in size or anything. I've tried the usual dragging and dropping, using right click
    to copy and paste, etc. Nothing happens. I CAN, however, copy multiple files. Just not multiple folders. I've never had this problem on my old pc (running Windows 7) so I'm just baffled. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

    Can't copy and paste multiple folders

    Hi Charlie,

    Says here it's Windows version 1709. It doesn't seem like I have any updates pending. I'm using a brand new laptop as well (only 4 days old).

    I was trying to copy folders from my flashdisk to drive D:. I can copy one folder containing multiple files just fine. BUT, copying one folder containing multiple subfolders is a no go. Also, I can copy paste multiple folders from drive D: to the flashdisk
    just fine. But the opposite (flashdisk to drive D) doesn't work.

    MULTIPLE COPY & PASTE

    Hello Microsoft,

    I just have a suggestion that I think will be very helpful to users of windows os.

    I feel that there should be a feature in windows called multiple copy - paste. The idea here is that a person should be able to copy multiple things at a time form different apps and also to be able to paste one or two or all the copied things as per his/her
    need.

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    I have different data on excel and Word. Now, If could copy some data from excel and some from word, and then I go to mail and first i paste excel data and after that in a different mail i could also paste the word file data without again going to word file
    and copying it, this will be very time saving and useful feature.
