| | Re: Copying CD files to folder, then copy folder to another hard drive, explorer hangs It appears that the problem involves stn files (a compressed image format) and maybe MS indexing. And if I exclude stn files from indexing and then go back in to that window, it is checked again to be included in indexing. Can't find a way to get indexing to exclude these files. If I do the same steps using just the tiff files on the CD I have no problems.
