Moving Files
I have a weird question....
When moving files from one drive to another, it shows where the files are going to but not where they are coming from. Anyone happen to know how to find out where the files are coming from?

+1 on what Ronasara said; and... I'd strongly recommend NOT to try to move files. If something goes wrong, you are likely to lose data. Instead, COPY the files and only delete the originals once the copy is completed.
I don't quit know what the issue is. If you are moving the files, then you already know where you selected them to be moved or copies. Could you be more specific as to what the issue is?
