Reason:

This problem might occur if you disabled "Libraries" feature in Windows 7 using Registry trick as mentioned here.

Please note that we are also using the same trick to disable Libraries feature in Windows 7 but we didn't face any problem while moving/copying file and folders even after installing SP1.

Solution:

Simply run the "Restore Default Settings.reg" file stored in the ZIP file given in following tutorial:

Once you restore the settings, your problem will get fixed.
