copy files is blocking main MC (portable)
sickOfMS:
win 8 MC x64 v6.0 build 2118
copy lot of files so that you get the progress bar
hit pause in progress bar
Problem is MC is blocked you can't do anything (even without pause if copy takes long time)
attached my settings/configs

What do you mean with blocking ?
How do you do the copy ? there are like 6-7-8 way to initiate a copy, Using F5/F2, Drag Drop from inside MC, From outside to inside MC,, Copy Paste, and many more ways.. some of them will trigger Windows Explorer to handle the copy.
However if MC internal copy engine is used it is running in the background and would not block the main UI.
And you only need to copy 1 file to get a progressbar.. it is always created. but if the copy is over fast it can autoclose.
So number of files does not matter.. 1 big file is enough
sickOfMS:
yes sorry that wasn't clear.
one or more files idea was to have progress bar for some time so you can hit pause.
I am doing simple CTRL+C CTRL+V (simple copy no any special window asking me what I want ... I already know I want to copy files same as in Windows Explorer)
my configs are included I don't remember changing anything regarding copy (maybe I did) but it looks to me that copy is handled by Windows Explorer i.e. progress bar is identical as if I copy using WE.
Mathias (Author):
Okey you are actually doing the one way that is triggering Windows Explorer to do the copy.
doing Ctrl-C , Ctrl-V to copy, then Windows Explorer does the copy.
sickOfMS:
ok good. But how can I copy paste file(s)/folder(s) using keyboard shortcuts and not having any nagging window/popup asking me any question(s) i.e. I want to do copy paste same as in WE but not to block MC, please ?
