Windows 10: Windows 10 explore - coping from a card to SSD HD - 1st copy paste (13G) worked but 2nd...

This computer was purchased with Windows 10 installed and has worked fine for the past 6 months. It's only when I tried the two copy paste back to back that the system hung. In order to get the system back I had to force a reboot. No files lost.


Could it be there's a cache that needed to be cleared and if so would it make sense to make the cache larger?


Any thoughts/suggestions would be most welcome (uhhh except for reinstalling Windows).


Fwiw - I'm not connected to the cloud, nor do I want to be.


Thanks

:)

 

Windows Explorer Copy and Paste problems

Hi,

The copy/paste problem could be due to Windows Explorer issue or faulty keyboard.

Wewould like to know some information to better isolate the problem:

• Is the issue also happening when trying to copy/paste any Office files, or is it only happening in Windows Explorer?
• Have you tried other ways like; right-click + Copy, then right-click + Paste?
  
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

We will wait for your reply.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

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

File Explorer Search Not Working


I am trying to search in File Explorer (Windows Explorer, My Computer) and it will not find anything. I can copy text from a name in the list and paste it in the search box and it still finds nothing. I have looked at the suggestions that have been posted and nothing I find that is relative to this works. Anyone have any suggestions? I am running Win 10 Pro on an I3 coustom desktop computer.
