| 583592 | 2007-08-21 22:58:00 | When I copy files from one folder to another which already contains files that are the same, the dialogue box asks "confirm file replace". The options given are Yes, Yes to all, No and Cancel. Is there a way to add a No To All rather than clicking No until the folder is updated? Thanks |

| 583595 | 2007-08-23 07:14:00 | it's not that windows can't do it it's that window is stupid and don't let you EASILY do it when you press the "No" button hold down shift (so shift+click) this is the same as "No to All" which isn't in the gui for some strange reason |
