Windows 10: Windows 11 Copy Multiple Folders

Hello All,I'm trying to copy multiple folders from one drive to another, however, I've only been able to copy a single folder at at time. There is a parent folders with many subfolders. I expected that I could just copy the parent folder and that all the subfolders would be copied. However, that process only copies the first subfolder under the parent. I also tried to select multiple sub folders, but the system won't allow be to select any more than a single subfolder.Any advice on how to copy multiple folders would be much appreciated.thank you,Tim

:)

 

Can't copy and paste multiple folders

Hey all. I'm having problems copying multiple folders from an external disk to my laptop (running WIndows 10). The folders contain mp3 files, they're not especially large in size or anything. I've tried the usual dragging and dropping, using right click
to copy and paste, etc. Nothing happens. I CAN, however, copy multiple files. Just not multiple folders. I've never had this problem on my old pc (running Windows 7) so I'm just baffled. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Problem printing multiple copies

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand that you are unable to print multiple copies using your Brother MFC-LW8900CDW printer, we will look into this for you.



I would suggest you to try steps mentioned in When
printing multiple copies or a multi-page document, only a single copy or page is printed - Windows and see if that helps.



If the issue persists, you can try to restart Print Spooler service. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows key
   + R, to open Run dialog box.
   
2. Type services.msc and click on
   OK.
   
3. Scroll down, look for Print Spooler, right click on it and select
   Properties.
   
4. Select Automatic from the drop down for
   Startup type.
   
5. Click on Start to start the service and click on
   OK.
   

You may also refer the Brother article
How to print multiple copies or use the collate feature within the Windows printer driver.



Let us know the results.

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
