How to Compress and Copy Files.
luapfr:
I notice that the file copy is not being done by the multi-Commander, it is showing me the normal Windows window.
And when I click to perform the file compression Clicking with the other mouse button and going to the option "MultiCommander" -> "Compress Files" nothing happens
Do I have to do some configuration for these functions to work ?
Version 12.8 B2929 Windows 10 64 Bits MultiCommander in Administrator.

It depends on HOW you starts a copy operation.
Normally MC will do the copy.. But if you do copy / paste the copy operation will be handled by Windows since it might require special handling of Windows.

Strange. I cannot reproduce that.
You should get a Pack files dialog where you then select what packer to use and target name.. and the if you press Ok it pack the selected files into a zip (if you selected zip)

See this attached video
I made several types of file copies and they all use the windows copy.
See also file compression that does nothing.

Yes if you do Copy /Paste. Then the Windows Copy process is used..
Not sure what you changed to make the make pack and that not work, But I guess something been change that conflict with each other. I'm not able to replicate that
