General DiscussionWindows 7 Deletes source files when copying using TS Client

    Using the TS Client with remote desktop deletes the source files!!

    This is a very scary bug that I have not seen before.
    Connecting to a variety of different servers using the remote desktop tool and trying to copy files between computers using the TS Client, A thing I do on a regular basis, does not work. And in fact it deletes the SOURCE files.

    I thought it was only happening when I was copying the files with ts client. But in fact it is deleting them just when I select the file.
    When I copy it says "Cannot find specified file", and then I check and the source file has been deleted.

    This also happens when I try and copy/paste via the clipboard.

    Please help me.

    I am experiencing the same problem.  Yesterday copying files via remote desktop was working but now I am getting the same problem.

    I am experiencing the same problem.  Yesterday copying files via remote desktop was working but now I am getting the same problem.
    I am also experiencing a simular situation of files being randomly deleted using Windows 7rc 64bit (AMD64). (Directly, not using TS).

    When the explorer window is using the "Details" view to browse and work with the files then certain file types (specifically .EXE) just get deleted while browsing the folders. It happens only every now and then.

    The main thing is that it ONLY happens in the "Details" view.
    When using the "Small Icons" view for several days all is well, switch back to "Details" and they start to disappear within the day.

    Hope this observation helps.

    Yes I can confirm it only happens when using the "Details View".
