I am on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and updated to the latest software. I have replaced hard drive of my laptop with an SSD. Original hard drive is fixed where the DVD drive used to be. Windows and Ubuntu both installed on the SSD. BIT folder resides on my original hard drive. BIT folder is just a randomly selected one. None on the hard drive partitions or SSD partitions allow me to use Cut, Move to or rename options. But the places on the side bar on the picture allow me to do so.

    Do you have write permissions to that location? The options you mention (cut, move, rename) require that you have write permissions to that directory/location.

  • If you right click & select Properties, then look in the Permissions tab you should see if you can 'create and delete' ..

    Thanks! You may want to put all this information in the question. This may help others understand the problem better. Also copy and paste the contents of /etc/fstab in the question. This will show us how the various partitions are mounted. If you cloned the partitions from HDD to SSD, the cloned partitions may have the same UUID as the original. In that case, either of them should be changed.
