Default Need help moving/copying a sub folder to an external device

Create a new folder where you would like to store it...but make sure it
is not too deeply nested...and give it a simple name.


Just for example: C:\Family Genealogy\Murphy



Now navigate to the folder that is not copyable and from /within/ the
folder "select all" . In other words copy all the files contained
within the folder but do not copy the folder itself.

Now copy that and paste it in the new location "Murphy"


Please post back to confirm that it worked or if more help is needed





OK...

also if you just plain gave the folder a shorter name, that might work too
