    Folder not found error when moving folder to another location


    Hi Guys
    I am getting the following error
    "Could not find this item"
    "This is no longer located in Drive:\ Verify the location and try again"
    If I click retry it continues as if nothing happened.
    Just started happening a couple of weeks ago and I don't recall any special happenings or installs at the time.
    Does anyone have any ideas to the cause or rectification.

    Sorry I should have been more specific. New to asking in forums.
    I know what I meant:)

    It happens moving any folder and to any drive, even external hard drive, USB, and also when creating a new folder.
    I was able to move a folder to my samsung phone without any error message.
