I've been struggling to figure out how to have all the photos that I've compiled in DPP 4 as a collection be copied to another folder. The method that I use for copying things from regular folders to other folders does not work when trying to do so with the contents in the collection.

I'm hoping that someone can help me with that.

Thank you.
 
Welcome to RF Shooters. I use DPP for a few specific reasons but never tried collections. I just tried it and the OS did not recognize it so it looks like this is a software specific option.

I should have also added it just creates a link to your folders so they are easier to find. Other software that offers collections does that as well.
 
I do not use Canon DPP very often but I would try selecting all the image thumbnails and then dragging them into the destination folder.
 
I use collections to easily group images. After I’ve completed rating my five star vacation photos, I filter for just five stars on those dates. Then I add to a vacation collection. Once editing is complete, I can batch process the collection as jpegs into a destination folder of my choosing. This makes for easy uploading to Shutterfly to build the vacation album.

But the raw files stay in their main import folder right where I want them. This is something I actually quite like about DPP4. It leaves my folders alone.
 
Thank you for your responses. I had gone ahead and just manually selected each photo from the folder that contained it since there was not a workaround trying to do what I wanted to do using the photos that I had added to DPP's collection.
