Copy Folder Structure Only Without Files

Post by Kinect »

Hi,

Can I copy only the selected folder structure (i.e. folders only without the files inside) and paste the folder structure into another drive / folder?

Of course: Right-drag to target / Create Branch(es) Here. Or use Create Folder(s) Here to only create the top level without recursing subfolders.

Or go via clipboard and do Edit / Paste Special / Paste Folder Structure.

Hiya!

Not sure if this is happening with anyone else, but I think in recent versions, this feature broke. I used to use this often, and now when I use it, when I paste let's say 5 folders, I see:

Folder
Folder-01
Folder-01-01
Folder-01-01-01
Folder-01-01-01-01

Rather than the true folder structure as before.

Yes, known bug. Has been fixed in v10.20.0011.

I'm falling behind on my beta updates. Thanks! Just noticed a 10.30 was released, installing now!
