| | vista leaves behind folders when moving folders with files in them Hello, this never happened before in XP.. Now in vista.. when I move a folder from location A to B, sometimes an empty folder is left behind in location A all of the contents of course are sent to location B... Why is this empty folder in location A not removed? I have to delete it manually... This doesnt happen ALWAYS, only some times... Thank you all for your replies. -Love is a great teacher.... |

I can find no locks on anything in the folders and this happens even if I have not viewed or accessed those folders during the session. Personally, I believe it to be a bug. |
