    firewall preventing file movement

    Thanks, got it, the evil one! Also, realised that the dropbox issue was an entirely separate issue. All solved.

    firewall preventing file movement

    How would I find out how the external drives are configured? And it won't let me upload to Dropbox either - is that related? BUT I can upload files via FTP... confused :(

    firewall preventing file movement

    I know it shouldn't, but it does. When I disable it, the problem disappears. If I can't find how to change its behaviour, I'll have to dump it.

    firewall preventing file movement

    It's the firewall that comes with Windows 8. Should I just disable it and get a 3rd party one? Because I can't see how to reconfigure it to allow what should be a basic feature - doesn't everyone need to copy files to external drives???

    firewall preventing file movement

    New laptop running win8. Can't export files to external drives, dropbox, anywhere off the computer unless I disable the firewall. What to do? Getting desperate!
