Ah, OK. Well, as you can see, the procedure I suggested would be just as - perhaps
more - cumbersome than simply rebooting.
You said you cut and paste the folder to a new location? Really mean that?
Why not just move the folder from one location to another (which doesn't leave the
folder in the old location, and doesn't involve the creation of a new folder)?
