Description of Problem:


Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. I have a folder "work" in my desktop, there 
are a lot of files in it. 
   in another place, I have a folder "work" also. 
2. I want to replace the files which name is same 
in "work" in my desktop. 
I copy the whole second "work" to Desktop use pop 
menu. 
3. A message box opened, the content is:
   -----------------------------------------------
-----------------------
   File ".../Desktop/work" already exists, would 
you like to replace it?
