• In the File List pane, select one or more files, and then click Edit | Copy To Folder or Move To

Folder.

2 In the Copy Files or Move Files dialog box, do one of the following:

• Select the Folders tab, and locate the folder on your hard drive where you want to place the

files.

• Select the History tab, and select a folder from the list of recently-accessed folders.

3Click the Overwriting duplicate files drop-down list and select one of the following options to

specify how ACDSee should handle overwriting files:

• Ask: prompts you for confirmation when overwriting a file.

• Replace: overwrites any file with the same file name and extension.

• Skip: cancels the operation if there is a file with the same file name and extension.
