Moving files (Cut and Paste) - Vista Home Premium

When I move multiple files/folders files between drives via Computer using
the right mouse click then Cut, then I right mouse click Paste on the
destination. Most times, it goes through the motions , but leaves
half/most/some the files behind. I sometimes have to do this 10+ times to
move all the folders.

Instead, if I do the same, but use the menu Cut and then right mouse click
paste, all the files are transferred no problems.

It must be an issue with the right-mouse click Cut function as that is the
only difference in my method.
Thanks
Dean

This doesn't directly answer your question, but gives another solution. I
found it on this NG sometime back and it works great for me. It's worth a
look.
