    Win 11 folder move or copy options


    I've used Windows for decades but Win 11 really lets us users down. Just for speed of use i keep going back to my Win 10 laptop. Why have the toolbars with the quick convenient copy to or move to been taken out? It's almost as bad as apple. Whoever thought this new system was progress really got it wrong and hopefully these folder options for being able to copy or move will be restored with an update.

    :)

    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

    Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

    Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

    • I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.


    • Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
    That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

    Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.

    Move to and Copy to options: I recently upgraded to Windows 11. A feature that I don't see which I used quite often in Windows 10 is the option to Move to or Copy to which used to be in the top ribbon. Can someone please tell me if it was removed or if I just don't know how to locate it?...
