Re: Saving data files to a CD

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hi,

At some point during the process when you had all the files selected, you
dragged them slightly. This creates the "copy of...." files you now see.
Deleting them is a pain, but you should be able to simply drag around the
group if you sort them by name.
