Feature request for MTP. Delete and Copy files instead of trying to move them.

[hikennoesu]

Hi.

My MTP device (a Moto G 2015) apparently doesn't support moving files through MTP.
Could you make it possible that files get deleted and copied again instead of trying to move them?

Thank you

PS: I think this might be the wrong category for this topic. If necessary feel free to move.

I assume you're using the "two-way" variant, because for "mirror" you have to opt-in into detection of moved files? What full error message do you get when moving a file on the device fails?

I have the same problem with the BQ Aquaris E4.5
Error message:

Cannot move file
"mtp:\Aquaris E4.5\Память телефона\Notifications\Elements.m4a" to
"mtp:\Aquaris E4.5\Память телефона\Ringtones\Elements.m4a".

Error calling "IPortableDeviceContent::Move".
HRESULT: 0x80070032, Такой запрос не поддерживается.

Thank you!

FreeFileSync now supports MTP devices that don't implement a move command:
