    Hi, Lately, I've been unable to delete/cut/copy files from certain folders within the Windows Explorer interface. I can do these operations from the command line or from within an app though. I can cut/copy out of the folders in question but not into with the error message.The screenshots below show the error messages that pop up after each attempt. Things I've tried so far, to no avail are: run chkdsk on all my driveschecked permissions on the files and foldersrun as administrator and tried to perform operationsI'm running Windows 10 Home 10.0.19043 Build 19043 on a Bootcamped Macbook Pro11,2

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
