Hate Vista.
I've got SD carded Camcorda and am trying to copy the files from it to the stupid vista desktop we have here at home.
Except it keeps getting stuck (randomly, not in the same place)
And it is taking an age !
In Windows XP when you copied and pasted, if a file already existed XP would ask you if you wanted to replace or ignor / skip and then would move on.
Stupid Vista it would seem starts right back at the beginning and re-copies the whole lot.
Annoying to say the least when you trying to move 78 clips (7.34 gigabytes)
Does anyone know how I can force stupid vista to behave like XP does i.e ask me if I want to re-copy or skip. I've got about 7 gig of the 7.34 copied by the way and would, if it were only a few files look and see what had and had not been copied. Thing is there are 78 of the buggers !
Excuses excuses, I know. And I also know it is probably something I'm not doing properly but if anyone has a didge or a workround, please let me know.
