| | Re: Moving folders doesn'r remove original folder Folders A and B are in both folder C (where I MOVED them) and the original position. Here's what I did: Select folders A and B Right click on them and drag to folder C Select Copy Here on the menu. Open folder C Folders A and B appear as they should Close folder C Select folders A and B Right click on them and drag to folder C Select Move here on the menu Select in the dialogs to Merge the folders After the MOVE is finished, folder A and B are not removed from the original folder.
