So I downloaded an .exe driver installer to use on my Windows XP partition on the same hard drive. I moved the file to the drive letter for my XP install and put it in the "Desktop" folder. I saw Linux move it and it showed up when I viewed it from within Linux. Next I pushed the reset button on my PC and booted to Windows XP. THE FILE WAS NOT THERE... I went back to Linux, re-downloaded the file and tried to move it again and it still won't show inside XP. i even tried doing copy paste not cut paste. The only thing that worked was when I created a folder in Linux and put then file inside it. When I moved it to XP and loaded XP again I could see the folder... I looked inside and there was my prized .exe file. Why won't Zorin Linux move .exe files to Windows by itself? Why must I create a folder first? Unfortunately i'm stuck with this piece of crap called Linux until Microsoft gets their act together and stops spying on everything we do and mining our data... Geeez.... Can't even trust Linux to do the most simple things...
