I found a different Disk Copy Bug yesterday when copying a floppy (880k) to
a directory on my hard drive. If I had already copied a floppy to that
directory and wanted to Copy a second one, the OS would sometimes return an
error of Object of Wrong type. If I closed the window with the directory in
it and reopened it the disk would copy fine, or Update would also solve the
problem. It's worth noting that I was copying from DF2: and DF3:. The Bug
is simply an annoyance, but may point to a more critical problem under a
different Disk Copy operation.
