Window not responding while copying

#1 Post by squirrel0 » 05.06.2015, 02:20

This is a problem with Windows and happens with XYplorer, the native Explorer etc: After pressing Paste and for as long as the copying lasts, it's impossible to control FC's window. It's not even being redrawn properly.

Is there a way to make the copying get launched from a separate process?

Activate XE's own copy/move handler and use F5/F6 shortcuts (or Shift+F5/Shift+F6 if you don't want the dialog window, or Copy/Move buttons, but not drag&drop):

Awww that's interesting, but it takes too long to select folders etc. I just cut/paste stuff, like videos on my Android tablet for example, or mp3s to my phone and the normal windows copy comes up.

I wish FreeCommander could start a copy in the background and show only the progress on a status bar or something, so I can keep working normally.
