Yup, I ran into this issue enough as a kid that I stopped using cut/paste/undo in explorer. If I needed to copy or move files around, I’d use the command line—which also had the effect of making files copy much faster (seconds instead of minutes) for some reason.
1. Cut a file.
2. Paste it somewhere.
3. Hit control Z.
4. Cry because your file is gone.

But it seems I cannot reproduce that in the current build of Windows anymore. So I think they finally fixed it.
