I no longer have the option: "Move, but keep both files" when i drag a picture from a web site to my desktop.
how do i get this option back in the copy file dialog box?

i should say i still have the option when i move a file from a folder on my desk top to another on my desk top.

Hi TheFlork, Welcome to the Forum

This is I believe a Firefox problem, If you are using Firefox then you have two options one of them is to install an older version, the other is to use a different browser.

I hope this helps

Thanks pooch!
that's what i thought as well, but the fire fox forums assured me it was a vista thing as they didn't have the problem ether.
even though when i do go back to ooooold fire fox i don't have the problem, but then i have to deal with it trying to restart every time i open a new page and it tries to get me to upgrade.
i have tried Internet explorer and Google chrome and both of them wont let me do it ether. which makes me think again that its a vista thing since its the vista copy file dialog box.

I think you may be right I have tried googling, not a lot to find about this, But I hope that you eventually get it sorted
