Here's the issue:
My computer has two hard drives, they are set as the C: and F:. Assume
that
I wanted to move something from one folder in the C: (C:\folder1) to
another
folder anywhere in the computer (F:\folder2), it would work fine. Though,
if
the original folder was on the F:, and it was moved to a seperate folder
on
the F: (F:\folder1) to (F:\folder2), it wouldn't exactly fail, but
everything
is messed up. All files, unless they are in a subfolder, would be read as
0
bytes, and give me a permission denied error when trying to open them. If
it
is a folder, it would give a permission denied error when trying to open
it,
thus making all the subfolders and sub-files impossible to get to. And as
a
side note, everything is fine when moving between the C: and C:, but only
messes up on F: to F:. Also, if I copy the files and not move them, it
also
works fine.

Hope somebody can help, and thanks in advance.
