  • Editing the question to say it's not a duplicate won't really help. Look at the answers to the suggested duplicate, and if they do not answer your issue you need to reword your question to make it clear that yours is different. (You could perhaps reference the other question and say you've looked at it but it doesn't help you because ...) I must say that from here your question still looks like a duplicate - being able to read a directory and its contents means you can copy it. Commented Apr 16, 2016 at 19:13
  • Maybe that was a bug, but i could not copy the files, but i could read them Commented Apr 16, 2016 at 19:31
  • There's also no point in responding within the comments (although I personally appreciate the reply). If you want your question to be addressed you need to review and update it like I've suggested. Or create a new one that is sufficiently different for it also not to be tagged as a duplicate of this one. I have no doubt that Stack Exchange will be able to help you, but you have to work within its rules and expectations - just like you would for a forum. Commented Apr 16, 2016 at 20:56
