One folder warning

[Topaz]

IMGBurn 2.5.5.0 - Build Mode

What is the meaning of the warning panel with text "You've only selected 1 folder!" ?

A typical PrtScr is shown in the attachment.

 

I just don't understand the two sentences giving an explanation.

Thanks.

It's pretty self-explanatory

 

When you add a single folder the program want to know if you want that folder with all its content on disc or just the content of that folder.

 

Select Yes if you want just the content of that folder on disc.

 

Select No if you want the folder with all it content on the disc.

Or switch to advanced input mode and use the Disc Layout Editor to see how your files/folders will actually be placed on the disc.

Still not convinced this is clear !

Maybe filesystems have got more complicated for this explanation but I take it to mean:

 

Do you wish to include the contents of the folder Portugal1 and its sub-folders (and their contents) ? (No path))

 

Do you wish to include only the contents of the folder Portugal, omitting its sub-folders ? (Yes path)

That doesn't explain what it actually does.

 

Subfolders have nothing to do with it, they're added based on the 'recurse subdirectories' option.

 

That prompt is used to decide if the 'Portugal 1' folder itself will end up in the root of the disc.

 

i.e. so you browse the burnt disc and see a 'Portugal 1' folder at the top level (or not).
