Mar 8, 2016 7:18 AM in response to rebeccafromcanadaby judysings,Hi rebeccafromcanada,
I understand you are having an issue where Microsoft Office files and PDFs that you move from your Desktop to another folder on your hard drive appear to be duplicating. When you look at the Desktop folder and the new location, what do you see? Has the file been moved from the Desktop? Is there more than one copy of the file in the new location?
Rebecca, initially, I would suggest two things. First, try moving a different kind of file, like a jpeg file, from your Pictures folder to your desktop. If you have an external drive, try moving a file to it as well. Do you get the same results? Also, try doing this in a new user account, so that we can try to isolate the issue down to software or user account.

Take care,
