Problems when moving video files

[Lester Stiefel]

Every time I move any video files, Explorer fails on
shutdown. Likewise, if I try to thumbnail the videos in
Media Player explorer fails.

Microsoft desperately needs to find a remedy to this
situation. It is their own defective shell that is at fault.

Win FW, Nvidia 7900gs 256mb video, SB xfi xtreme audio, Dell

junk)

I am confused...

How can you say that Microsoft needs to find a remedy for this when others,
including myself, move video files around on many different Windows XP
machines almost daily without the issues you are having? I move AVIs, MPGs,
TS, etc. files around, ranging in size of under 100MB to upwards of 8-10GB
(single files) from one location to another in Windows explorer (from one
partition to another, one drive to another, one computer to another over a
network and internal drives to external (USB and 1394 drives) drives just
about every day.

Sounds more like a problem with your particular setup. What is in your
event log?

Before you can claim that you have found a problem
with Explorer, you need to test this issue on a few other
machines. The likelihood of a problem within Explorer
is very, very small. If is far more likely that there is
something wrong withour own Windows installation.

While I have no qualms at all for blaming MS for something, your problem
seems to be a chair-keyboard interface niggle.
