I have tried dragging and dropping 642 pictures (less than 1gg) into a 2gg flashdrive. It stops at picture 511. If I use copy and paste there is no problem. It completes that task.
Is there a setting I can change in the computer to allow the task to work in drag and drop?
Thank you.

Put the pictures into a subdirectory, or reformat the drive to FAT32. It sounds like your flash drive is formatted with FAT16 ("FAT"), which would be surprising but would account for a limit on the number of files in the root directory. FAT32 doesn't have that limitation and should be supported on all operating systems new enough to also recognize USB devices. |
