Windows 10 Coping and Moving
After updating to Windows 10, I started to get a problem moving files from one folder on the Nas to other folder on the Nas. But strangely I can copy the same file from the same 2 folders.

What firmware are you running?
Are you moving the files with windows file explorer, or some other way.
What happens when you try to move the file?

Hi
By version 5.3.112
Using File explorer to move files around, note using a old windows 7 laptop, I can move files around just fine. So it's must be a problem with my Windows 10 desktop.
I get "You need permission to perform this action" only on moving file but coping in fine?

After you copy, can you delete the original?

Yes, just tested it, I can delete the original

That's odd then, since copy+delete requires the same permissions as move.
I sometimes get security warnings from my corporate Win-7 laptop when I move files on the NAS, though I can click through them and still do the move.
Is there a click-through for you, or is windows simply not letting you do the move at all?
