Replace file? Have to click "Yes" Twice. Why?
C'mon ye ole Guru's HELP!
When I drag and drop a file that I have made changes to into a folder where the unchanged file resides I get the normal window below. If it is multiple files I get the Yes To All option. No Matter What I do I have to click the Yes, with a single file twice, the same for multiple files and clicking the Yes To All button. If I want to cancel I have to hit it twice! Why? |

Are there Folders included? It will ask once for Files and again when replacing a Folder. If that's the case, it's normal. I also think (?) it will ask for each File type.

You can also hit "Y" on the keyboard. It should speed things up.

They are spread sheets. I make changes and then drag and drop into the root of other hard drives for backup where they overwrite the previous versions. |

I found out what is going on, not a fix but here it is.
I run dual displays on a card with two DVI inputs. I usually have the source folder "Documents" on one display and the destination folder "Computer" showing the list of drives on the other display. One day I had both folders on the same display and it worked as normal asking me if I want to replace the file(s). BAM, one "Yes To All" and its done. If I have one folder on each display it asks me twice with the same message even if I choose "Yes To All". If I have one folder on one display and the other spanning across both displays it will only need one confirmation. SheesH! I'm just glad I got to the bottom of it. |

Missing One-Click "Red X" File Delete One of the things I really missed when migrating from WinXP to Win7 was the Windows Explorer "Red X" file delete icon. After so many years of having a single-click delete button I really miss it. Is there any way to get it back under Windows 7? :confused: Dick Flanagan |
