Windows 10: Windows Security Msg- "These files might be harmful to your computer" xfer files between...

I have 2 windows explorer windows open, one on the directory on the windows 10 system, the other on the Xubuntu system. the fact that both are there means the windows system has connectivity to the xubuntu system.

I've used this setup to move files like this for over 4 years, longer if we count the windows 7 years. this error started yesterday.

It does not provide enough info to fix whatever setting is causing this.

When I click "OK" the files copy just fine; but I should not, I DO NOT WANT, THIS STUPID MESSAGE EVERY TIME I WANT TO MOVE A FILE between my two computers on my home private network!

Opening a .MSG file created by Outlook 365

Because the apps I had tried and the one I had installed, appeared on the list of possible Apps in the list for opening MSG files, I thought that repairing Outlook might work. So I tried the repair option as Sheltieuk had suggested. When I then tried Start – Defaults afterwards and looked to see what was available to open MSG files, Outlook had appeared on the list! Selected that and it worked.

For once I have posed not only a question but an answer!!

 

These files might be harmful to your computer message(desktop)


Ah, my mistake with the \ and /.
Folder now moved as suggested and problem now solved. No idea how this happened.
However.................if I now move a file to the recycle bin and want to restore it back to its original location, I am being prompted with this one now.....



Now when deleting from the desktop again, I am prompted with:

 

For Fast File XFER - Filezilla

Hi there

I can't recommend this FREE program highly enough - a winner in every way including sftp encrypted secure file transfers
Works really fast, much more reliable than Windows explorer and can re-try, decent logs etc etc.

Fast XFER, Windows to / from Windows, Windows to and from Linux NAS systems, Linux to / from Linux systems

For Windows when RECEIVING files FROM another Windows system ensure the Sending system has openssl server enabled -- it's in the Optional applications install - just install and enable it.

For RECEIVING from any NAS system ensure that the ssh / sshd service is running - just ensure package openssh is installed (usually is by default on most Linux distros).

Here I'm Xferring around 2 TB of files - approx 3,500 files - mainly multimedia between two NAS systems over the Internet

Files located on slowish HDD's on both systems . Exactly same GUI would be on Windows -- Approx half way through the mega Xfer -- moving to new NAS with bigger / faster HDD's.







Get filezilla from here

Download FileZilla Client

Choose filezilla client - not the server !!!
