WTF Windows?!
So I'm reorganizing some pictures, some are duplicates. At least under XP, if I dragged a file into a folder with a file that had the same name, it would ask me which version to keep. But Windows 7 has nerfed that ability.
*Drags file into folder desired*
Windows: "The source and destination file names are the same."
Me: "Yes, I know that, overwrite the file."
Windows: "Sorry, your only option is Cancel."
Trying it with multiple files
Windows: "Okay, your options now are Skip or Cancel, with a checkbox to do that for all files (Even if that makes no sense for cancel)."
Me: "WTF happened to replace?!"
Windows: "Hehehe. U Mad?"
(Update: Seems to be related to accessing your files through the "Library" system instead of your directory structure. I hate this system. I'd like to turn it off.)
