When moving folders, I get an error message: Could not find this item

I just installed the 64 bit version, but when trying to move folders (also compressed folders like zip), a box comes up with the error message:

Could not find this item
This is no longer located in xxxxxxxx. Verfiy the item's location and try again.

If I click the 'try again' -option in the error box, everything works and the folder is moved.

What about your AV program (anti virus)?

I disabled both antivirus and firewall, but no difference.

But I installed Teracopy, and then it works fine. Does that tell you anything?

Permissions? Do I need to run anything in administrator mode?

I found a fix, and it had to do with me having disabled libraries in Windows 7. Once I deleted some registry entries (Folder Descriptions), it all works. I guess re-enabling libraries would also work.

Don't know how this would affect normal moving operations, and why the error message only came up in the 64-bit version of FreeCommander, but happy as long as it's sorted. Thanks for the reply.

Also thx for FreeCommander, been using daily for years. About time to pay for it.. ;) It's the best.
