Ctrl + z

I just learned that this key combo (ctrl+z) is supposed to 'undo' an explorer operation such as moving a file by accident . It does not work for me. How about you?

-thx

It works for me in Windows 7 x64 and in Windows 10 Pro x64.

really?

Here is how I tested it. I open two different folders and put them side by side. I drag a file from one to the other. I press 'ctrl+z' and nothing happens. The moved file does not return to the original folder. Did I do it wrong?

I tested it by moving a folder from Documents to Downloads.
Checked that it was moved.
CTRL+Z and folder was back in Documents and no longer in Downloads.

MilesAhead, yes, this does work for me as you describe.

pbcopter, tried it with the same folders as you. no joy.

oh, well.

1/2 solution is better than no solution, thx all

Not on the C drive where those folders are located.

Works for me every time. Perhaps a buggy shell extension could interfere?

I use a custom theme from VC. Could this be a factor?
