Windows 10: Where do copies go?

Just a simple question. In my Documents Directory, I can select an individual file or a folder with multiple files in it.
If I right click on it, I get the option to Copy (among others).
If I choose Copy, nothing seems to happen ? Did it copy? And if it did where did they go? How can I find them?
Would it be preferable to use the CLI to Copy, and designate a destination for the copied files?
Thank you.

Where Nokia Suite stores local copies of firmware and software update

hello..try this, found mine at this directory:



just make you have enabled to show all hidden files in Folder Options:



then navigate to C:\Program Data\Nokia\Nokia Suite\NOSSU2\variants\Production External\Products\RM-XXX



..hope this helps..

 

It copies the item to the 'Clipboard', then you go 'Paste' it somewhere.

You could also add 'Copy To'/'Move To' to your right click context menu by saving the following code to Notepad as a .reg file then merge it:

Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To] @="{C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Move To] @="{C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"[/quote]

 

Okay, Thank you.
That brings up another question then. If I copy a folder containing multiple files, Is the actual content of the folder copied?
ie: all the files?

 

Yes, the folder and everything in it.

 

Yes, Thank you, I just tried this and it worked like a charm. This is simple stuff, but something I didn't know.
This will come in very handy, Much appreciated.

 

[/quote] Could you elaborate on this please. Is this a one time procedure? What is involved in the "merge" process?

 

Could you elaborate on this please. Is this a one time procedure? What is involved in the "merge" process? The default action when you double-click on a .reg file is to run Regedit to add the contents of the .reg file to the registry - a process Microsoft call 'merging'. You'll be asked if you really want to do this...

 

What @Bree said. *Wink

If you want to undo the Registry modification, create a .reg file, in like manner, with the following:

Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To] [-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Move To][/quote]
