Copy and Delete at the Same Time

That would make me a wee bit uneasy.   Thinking.gif  

I think I would want to be sure the copy went smoothly before I deleted the original.

Copy and Delete at the Same Time

It is good to know that tip yes.
But after trying it, it does delete it straight on... doesn't even stay in your trash can.
Would be abit more secure if they just move the copied item to the trash but not automaticly delete it.

Hmmm, i guess the item will only be deleted upon succesful copying?

“Copy and Delete at the Same Time” isn't that called “Move”?

He He....

"This disk contains files with the same name as the ones you are moving."

I thought I was copying! I think I have that message right... though it mixes up its plurals and singular - or something. wink.gif
