    Shortcuts not accessible after copying files


    I copied a lot of my files from WindowsC: to DATAD: but then wasn’t able to use the shortcuts for some apps on my desktop receiving a message saying the file had been moved or removed and the shortcut wasn’t going to work properly any more

    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

    Shortcuts not accessible after copying files

    Regarding copying of files in external drive from pc

    Hi,

    The message that appeared on your screen may have occurred due to the possible missing files if you'll try to copy it that way. We suggest that you follow these steps on how you can copy the file together with it's properties:

    • Right click on the application (Bully) and click Properties.
    • On the application properties window, under the Shortcut tab, click
      Open File Location.
    • The File Location window will open.
    • Select everything. Copy and paste it to the external drive.
    • The copying process may take a while depending on the type of files.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
