blachole Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 This may sounds like a dumb question, but I cannot seem to find an answer or option to the issue. I move files a lot from my main HDD to my external HDDs I have, but when moving to the external drives, it copies the files and leaves the originals on the main HDD. Is there an option or a hack setting I can change so that when moving files from my HDDs it moves the file and doesn't just copy it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
