Perhaps my issue is the result of using the portable version. Ideally, a portable version should save all settings to the MultiCommander\Config directory, which I thought it was doing, but maybe not the 'save settings on exit' stuff.

If you use Multicommander Look'n'Feel, it is possible to select via RMB hold and hover (by default if I'm not mistaken). If you mean rectangle selecting like in Windows Explorer, it is possible via Left button (not sure about RMB) and can be enabled in Explorer panel settings > Display > Selection and checking of items > Selection Box.
Check Explorer panel settings > Mouse configurations > Right mouse button > Click. I have "Toggle selection" there.

Yes it is real difference - minutes vs seconds.
MC has full admin permissions & is 100% whitelisted for all ops in the AV.
I agree it appears to be something blocking MC but I am struggling to determine what as it isn't obviuos, I double checked the R/W strategy was as recommended...
I guess I need to run some sort of trace or something.

When writing data there is not much to play with.. it is bypass cache or not and write chunck size (how many bytes to write in each write operation) and if writes should be threaded or not.
There are so many external factor that affect the speed.
Also you cant just compare the number from Windows.. since that number say nothing. That is not a real speed.
But getting really slow speed in MC then I suspect something is preventing MC from going full speed and checking the data before it sends it to the device.

Files ~300mb to USB 3.0 stick, <20GB free space.
Tried MC first, cancelled after about 10mins, repeated with different file of similar size & took screen shot.
Then using MC panes ctrl+x / v - expected speed achieved, to be sure I ran a CRC check - OK.
Very different results.
