Yeah, I know that. For some reason when I try and copy an exe (specifically made for PPC, I'm not trying to copy any normal windows files) the paste option is greyed out on the menu. None of the normal file movement actions will work (drag&drop, copy&paste, etc). I'm running Win2000.

Any ideas?

Strange.. uninstall and reinstall is all I can really say.

By the way, forget everything you know about Palm and how it works - it will help you greatly coming from that land myself.

Huh? What's wrong with using WinZIP? I'm never in it, just use the extract to shell extension.

I also get the Paste greyed out when moving files, but you can move the file first from the orignal folder to the desktop, open up "Explore, find the directory where you want to put the file in, and move it from the desktop to the PPC folder.


I hope that didn't sound too erm..scrambled :)
