I have just uploaded about 100 files on my wife's shared directoriy, by doing a CTRL+C on a playlist, then going to the share in My Computer tree, then doing CTRL+V. Besides not being able to monitor the copy progress (just a magnifier icon is shown, no progress bar or name of the file being copied... or moved..., no cancel button), at the end of the operation I found that all these files disappeared from my hard disk, and the library item pointed to the shared directory.

I had to restore the latest backup of the library, then had to move each file manually in its original directory.

There are very few certain things in today's "quantistic" (that is, non-deterministic) Windows computer. One was that CTRL+C followed by CTRL+V was meant to copy, not to move files. No longer anymore...

I am sure I did not press CTRL+X accidentally. I am rather used to keyboard operations, as I dislike using the mouse. To press CTRL+C my fingers rest in a natural position. To press CTRL+X I have to move fingers close to each other, a sensorial feedback one surely remembers.
