Copy from MC to Explorer
Turpal:
Okay, running as Admin helped. However, it'd be wonderful if MC would trigger similar elevation prompt if it is started without Admin permissions.
Now it just drops any action without notifying user that smth went wrong.

you wanted to say MC should normally start this prompt or something else? I have no idea what is helper process.

Normally MC does that. But It depends on what you do. And that you have not turned it off.
By default if you drag a file to system32 folder in MC and MC is running in normal session it will show an access denied error.
and there is a button saying retry as admin. and when you press that a UAC dialog is shown and when it is confirmed and a Helper process is launch that make
will relay the writing and the file is copied. The Helper process is only launches once. and for all the other files there is no dialog.
Helper processes is a program that MC starts as admin. and all the writes are relayed via that program so even if MC is run as normal user it can do admin work.
When the admin helper process is launch you have a red notice in the status bar on MC so you know it is active.

Now when I try to open system folder in non-Admin mode, MC does nothing. No window or notification appears, I press Enter and nothing.

That is very strange.. Is your setup of windows special/different from other normal user in anyway ?
what do you do?
Browse to c:\Windows\system32 and then drag a file into that folders.. and nothing happens ?
do the fileoperation log say anything ? (Ctrl+L click on FileOperationsLog)

No.

No copying, I simply try to open it.

If I try to d'n'd file to system folder, it prompts for permissions
But if I simply try to enter this folder it gives no reaction.
