Problem With Pasting Files

sjlevin · 21st December 2000, 21:16

This is a glaring error that I've had to put up with through various revisions of the Winamp system - has anyone else experienced this? Is it just my system?

When I go to open a file, and am then presented with the standard Windows explorer, I can cut and copy a file(s), using the right mouse button pop-up menu. I can also succesfully paste the file(s) back into the same folder.

But, whenever I cut/copy a file(s) then change folders and try and paste the file(s), the option to paste, is not available on the right mouse button pop-up menu (it is feint). Therefore, I cannot move files from one directory to another whilst in Winamp.

Any ideas?

Sounds more like a Windows bug than a Winamp bug. Have you tried the same thing in other programs with the standard Windows Open file(s) box? And why not just use Windows Explorer instead?
