["Ali Linx (amjjawad)" <amjjawad@xxxxxxxxx>]

Approach 1:
When the pop up show up for opening the USB Drive with The File Manager, I
did open it.
I opened another window for The File Manager
Copy the source folders from USB
Paste to my Home

Approach 2:
Instead of copy-paste, I dragged and dropped the folders
Two windows for The File Manager were opened

Tried this on Lubuntu 12.04, 12.10 and 13.04 Beta 2

I failed to re-produce the same issue that you reported :)
