MC hangs when copying files
« on: February 26, 2025, 13:15:08 »
Actually the title is inaccurate. MC hangs *before* it starts copying files, producing empty (white) modal sub-window. This window has no controls, so it cannot be neither moved nor closed. Even worse, it is on top of other windows. Main MC window cannot be closed too as its child is modal.

All I can do is to use Task manager to forcefully kill MC. It does not close cleanly (directories in panels are not as they were while closing, etc.).

This happens once per day or two when I use MC for longer time.

MC x64, version 15.0, build 3072 dated Feb 9 2025 (please, please allow us to copy data form "About" window!)
Windows 10

There were no such problems in previous versions of MC.

Not seen that, Nothing with copy has changed in latest version.

If it hangs you can create a process dump from taskmanager and upload it to https://multicommander.com/support/upload
And I check from that see what MC is waiting for. Often when mc hang it wait for some call to Windows to finish. often some network operation.
