Vista Reverts My Code On Me

Question

For some strange reason, when I move a PHP file from one folder to another, Vista copies an old version of the file instead of the current version. This really screws up the web application I'm working on and causes me to waste time in figuring out the problem.

What the hell is going on here and how do I prevent Vista from copying or moving previous versions of a file?

To explain a little further, when I open my PHP file in its current location I see the current version of my code. When I copy the file to the new location and open the file I see an old version of the code.

Check \UserName\Documents\AppData\Local\VirtualStore (or whatever %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore equates to) and see if somehow you're running into Vista's virtual store with your editor.

(This article explains some of how the virtual store works.)
