Have you tried copying and moving them with Command Prompt? Just did a little bit of research online and someone said that it fixed it for them.

Really looking forward to Windows 8.1. I love what they have done, especially stopping all newly installed applications being plonked on the main metro window. Great job Microsoft!

Is that including booting off a windows 8 disk?

Its annoying because if you could access command prompt you could run a SFC scan which would probably fix the issue. If you have a windows 8 disk you could boot from that and run the Command Prompt under the "Repair your computer" option.

See if this helps you... Once you are in the advanced boot menu I believe you can select command prompt. How To Access Advanced Startup Options in Windows 8 I myself are still learning all the different boot menus in windows 8, so i'm a bit rusty.

It might be worth doing a Check Disk. Will fix any corrupt windows files. If you can access Safe Mode via command prompt then great, if not you will need to get there via the advanced system menu. When / if you get there run chkdsk /F C: or chkdsk C: /F. More info on tech-net site: Run Check...

I suggest doing what znod said. Connect your computer to the modem via ethernet then download the latest updates, and it would probably download the correct wireless drivers.

Hello Motley, So what I can gather you already have 1 email account connected to the windows 8 mail app. To add another account, open up the mail app so you are looking at the list of your emails, move your mouse to the bottom right hand corner of the screen, and bring up the charms menu. Click...

Wifi is the signal that your router gives out. So it looks like you already have wifi by means of your router. However like Jacer200 said, it sounds like there saying because you pay TW for your home broadband, you can connect anywhere around the country that has TW router that is giving out the...
