  Hi Jean,
  
  Maybe I'm missing something, here ....
  
  PC installed with the Setup programme, v11.1, default file manager is Windows 10 Explorer. 
  
  In Customize, I select any item and try to Move it ... the top entry remains as Main, I select anywhere else in the bottom entry .... an error message says "You cannot move favourites to their current location .....". I can move it to any of the "sub-folders" of Main.
  
  Using the Up & Down arrows works, of course.
  
  It would save a lot of Up/Down arrow clicks if the Move worked within the Mai menu ....
  
  Regards, and a Happy New Year!
  
  Mark

  It sounds like you are trying to 'move' it to it's current location instead of a new one.
  
  I get the same error message if I don't select a new destination from the top drop-down, 'Move favorite to this menu'.
  
  A screenshot would be very helpful.

  Correct. The attached screenshot shows my Main menu with associated sub-menus.
  
  I would think it more common and useful to be able to move items within a menu, as can be done line by line by using the Up/Down arrows.

  Thanks Mark. The Move in the bottom right moves to a different submenu. The up and down arrow keys on the left move / rearrange within a submenu.
  
  I see how it can be confusing.

  Yes, but maybe it should work like the arrows, it would make it a lot quicker and easier to arrange items.

  Hi Mark and Dale,
  
  You are correct Mark. This is a limitation of QAP. Moving only one item would be easily done. But moving multiple items (selecting them with Ctrl-Click or Shift+Click) caused some issues and, having other priorities at that time, I decided to wait before implementing it. I should work on this soon.
  
  Also, in the next release v11.2 (planned for January) it will be possible to move items in its current menu using drag and drop. You will probably like it.

  Jean,
  
  Great! So v11.2 will allow single item move, multiple items maybe to follow?
  
  Sounds like a plan!
  
  Cheers,
  
  Mark
