SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to use the diskcopy command to copy the contents of a floppy disk to a dissimilar media type (such as an LS-120 SuperDisk), you receive the following error message:

Disks are not of the same type.

However, if you click Retry, the diskcopy process stops without further error messages.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the DiskCopyMainLoop function handles the user response incorrectly.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
