Hi, The cmd-n command opens a new Finder window, and by default, it usually opens the All Files window. You really don't need both windows open at the same time to copy and paste between them. For example, if I had a file called "copy Me" in a folder named "Stuff" on my Desktop, I could navigate to that file, press cmd-c to Copy it, then navigate to wherever I wish to paste it, press cmd-v to Paste and the file will be copied over. I would press cmd-option-v to move it over so that it only resides in the new location. This process also works for copying text or images, in that both windows are not required to be open at the same time. If you are dragging files, then both windows need to be open, sort of.
