That is odd. It works as you'd expect when I try the same things here.

It's possible antivirus is blocking the operation when it's done by Opus but not Explorer.

Using Process Monitor to see what is happening may be the best option: [Process Monitor instructions](https://resource.dopus.com/t/process-monitor-instructions/27806)

(Please [link your account](https://resource.dopus.com/link-opus) if you'd like us to look through Process Monitor logs.)
