Copy & SaveDialogue Problem

Mike B. <mb69mach1@...>
 

Hi All,
 
I'm running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, Jaws 16, IE11, & Office Standard 2010.  A couple of weeks ago we were gone, & when we got back home I had to copy files I had saved from my computer from our other house to my computer at this house.  I mainly use the copy & save using Windows Explorer, copying from My Dropbox folders to various other folders on an external drive.  Well, the copy & save dialogue had somehow changed at this house, & I don't have a clue as to how it happened!  Below are the dialogues labeled as, What it was:, & Now:

I have always seen it the second way in Windows 7, which is why I
prefer XP! It's very annoying. The only alternative I have tound is
to use an external program for such things, but sometimes it worked
and sometimes not. In any case, just tell it that you want to do this
for all files and it should work. I'm sorry you're going through
this.

Hi Eleni,
 
I don't have a problem working with the current dialogue, but I did find it easier to use the prior copy / save dialogue.  What I question the most is the fact that the dialogue changed without an update installation, or anyone else being on the computer to screw something up to instigate the change!  LOL  Things like this are the things that make you scratch your butt, & say, Hmmmmmmmmmmm!  LOL  LOL 
Thank you very much for your input / reply.
Take care.  Mike.  Dodgers, try again next year!

Hi all,

Mike, you get that dialog whenever you want to copy files from DropBox to folders which have older versions of the same files. Just check the 'copy & replace' and then the box that says do the same for the next however many files. This is SOP.

Change it back to what?  That's is the way the dialog has always appeared on my machines.  What do you want the copy feature to do that has changed since the dialog has changed?  Rather than fool around with it, it might be better to use a backup program or a different copy utility with more options.

Hi Ann,
 
I know how it works, but preferred the old dialogue options.  These are the old & new choices:
Options Old:
Yes Yes to All No CancelMore...
Option New:

I don't care how SOP it is, I was only asking if anyone knew if this can be reverted!

You didn't read the dialogues thoroughly.  There are 2 different options at the end of the 2 dialogues, & I prefer the old options.  All I'm asking is if anyone knows how to get the old options back, not to be told how I should have my computer or how it should be run.

I did look at the options you reproduced.  I said that my Windows 7 has the new options you are discussing.  I don't know why you had the other options previously.  My guess is that the new options appeared as the result of a Windows update.  Tuesday was probably the Tuesday monthly Microsoft update release day. 
 
I would imagine that you generally want to either skip the file or copy and replace the existing copy.  To skip the file, instead of tabbing around the dialog, use the command alt s.  Copy and replace or just copy doesn't have an alt letter command announced to use as a short cut when you tab to that option.  I don't know if there is one.  If you want to use the do this for all occurrences checkbox, use the command alt d.

A couple of weeks ago we were gone, & when we got back home I had to copy files I had saved from my computer from our other house to my computer at this house. I mainly use the copy & save using Windows Explorer, copying from My Dropbox folders to various other folders on an external drive. Well, the copy & save dialogue had somehow changed at this house, & I don't have a clue as to how it happened! Below are the dialogues labeled as, What it was:, & Now:
What it was:

replace those files.

Well, the first part of the dialogues are the same, but it's just the last several lines that have changed. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you resolve it / change it back, if you did? Does anyone have a clue as to how to change the copy & save dialogue? I haven't been able to find a fix, & have been searching like crazy! This may require a call to Microsoft Accessibility! All advice or help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much.
Take care. Mike. Dodgers, try again next year!

Hi all,

Mike, you get that dialog whenever you want to copy files from DropBox
to folders which have older versions of the same files.  Just check the
'copy & replace' and then the box that says do the same for the next
however many files.  This is SOP.

It didn't do it buy itself and it did it on a Tuesday which is probably the day when the Microsoft update was released.  I wouldn't assume that updates never occur when the user doesn't allow them in the update settings.  Indeed, I read many years ago that Microsoft had caused some updates to be accepted by computers even though the user had turned updates off.  I haven't heard about this for years and I don't know if it has happened for quite some time, but as I say, it can't be assumed.  If you check your updates, what is the newest one?  I think it's the first one in the list. 
 
It could be something else but I would say that a Microsoft update, until we learn more, is the most likely possibility.

Try a system restore. If it really is an update, that should fix it
and tell you. Unfortunately, it will update again, but at least
you'll know. I still wish I knew how you got the older dialogue!

Indeed, I read many years ago that Microsoft had caused some updates to be
accepted by computers even though the user had turned updates off. I
haven't heard about this for years and I don't know if it has happened for
quite some time, but as I say, it can't be assumed. If you check your
updates, what is the newest one? I think it's the first one in the list.

It could be something else but I would say that a Microsoft update, until we
learn more, is the most likely possibility.

Hi Flor,

That's the problem, my computer can't update itself!! I have it set so it
can't, supposedly! Our 3 computers have the older save dialogue, so it
couldn't have been an update even if it had updated on its own. I don't
have a problem with the updated dialogue, I just wanted to know if I could
get the other dialogue back! But, I guess that just isn't SOP! LOL LOL
Take care. Mike. Dodgers, try again next year!

Hi all,

Mike, you get that dialog whenever you want to copy files from DropBox

'copy & replace' and then the box that says do the same for the next
however many files. This is SOP.

No, it did not update on the  Tuesday we left to go to our other house, because the updates had already been installed the prior week before we left, & the copy dialogue was working on the day we left.  But, the hell with how or why it happened because it happened!  How or why wasn't any part of my question, but y'all just have to take what I asked in a direction that it did not need to go, & tell me how to use a copy & save dialogue I already knew how to use!  All I asked was this:
The first part of the dialogues are the same, but it's just the last
 several lines that have changed. Has anyone else experienced this? If so,
 how did you resolve it / change it back, if you did?  Does anyone have a
 clue as to how to change the copy & save dialogue?
 
All I was asking is what's above, not how to use my current dialogue, not why updates were or weren't installed, but no, it's like I said y'all just had to go where this thread didn't need to go!  I'm sorry, but now things are being added about my computer updating, which I already know can happen!  Damn, I know I'm no computer genius, but what's so damn hard about just answering the questions asked, if a person knows the answers?!  In a nutshell, we have 4 computers at this house, they all run the same operating systems, they all get the same updates, I know because I do all the updating, but this computer is the only computer the dialogue changed without knowingly being updated, if that's what happened!  Back to square 1!  LOL  LOL

Hi Eleni,
 
I've been the system restore route, & it didn't work.  I didn't mention everything because I just wanted to ask a question, not write a long book!  We have 4 computers in this house, & 2 at the other house.  This is the only computer that has this different copy / save dialogue.  I know how to use it, all's I asked is how to get the other dialogue back, not how to rebuild the keyboard to make it do something different, not how to use the new dialogue, not how the new dialogue got there, only if anyone knew how to get the older dialogue back!  LOL  LOL  Thank you for making a logical suggestion to my question!
Take care.  Mike.  Dodgers, try again next year!

At the risk of rekindling your wrath, I'll ask this question.  Was this computer upgraded from any other operating system?  I'm not sure if you can upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.  The dialog isn't correct for Windows 7 so the question is, where did it come from?

At the risk of rekindling your wrath, I'll ask this question.  Was this computer upgraded from any other operating system?  I'm not sure if you can upgrade from Vista to Windows 7.  The dialog isn't correct for Windows 7 so the question is, where did it come from?

No, it did not update on the  Tuesday we left to go to our other house, because the updates had already been installed the prior week before we left, & the copy dialogue was working on the day we left.  But, the hell with how or why it happened because it happened!  How or why wasn't any part of my question, but y'all just have to take what I asked in a direction that it did not need to go, & tell me how to use a copy & save dialogue I already knew how to use!  All I asked was this:
The first part of the dialogues are the same, but it's just the last
 several lines that have changed. Has anyone else experienced this? If so,
 how did you resolve it / change it back, if you did?  Does anyone have a
 clue as to how to change the copy & save dialogue?
 
All I was asking is what's above, not how to use my current dialogue, not why updates were or weren't installed, but no, it's like I said y'all just had to go where this thread didn't need to go!  I'm sorry, but now things are being added about my computer updating, which I already know can happen!  Damn, I know I'm no computer genius, but what's so damn hard about just answering the questions asked, if a person knows the answers?!  In a nutshell, we have 4 computers at this house, they all run the same operating systems, they all get the same updates, I know because I do all the updating, but this computer is the only computer the dialogue changed without knowingly being updated, if that's what happened!  Back to square 1!  LOL  LOL 

Take care.  Mike.  Dodgers, try again next year!

It didn't do it buy itself and it did it on a Tuesday which is probably the day when the Microsoft update was released.  I wouldn't assume that updates never occur when the user doesn't allow them in the update settings.  Indeed, I read many years ago that Microsoft had caused some updates to be accepted by computers even though the user had turned updates off.  I haven't heard about this for years and I don't know if it has happened for quite some time, but as I say, it can't be assumed.  If you check your updates, what is the newest one?  I think it's the first one in the list. 
 
It could be something else but I would say that a Microsoft update, until we learn more, is the most likely possibility.

Hi Flor,
 
That's the problem, my computer can't update itself!!  I have it set so it can't, supposedly!  Our 3 computers have the older save dialogue, so it couldn't have been an update even if it had updated on its own.  I don't have a problem with the updated dialogue, I just wanted to know if I could get the other dialogue back!  But, I guess that just isn't SOP!  LOL  LOL

Hi Mike,
 
Well, I did think it was rather soppy! LOL.
 
I was about to suggest that your system had updated itself, but others did so anyway.

Hi all,

Mike, you get that dialog whenever you want to copy files from DropBox
to folders which have older versions of the same files.  Just check the
'copy & replace' and then the box that says do the same for the next
however many files.  This is SOP.
