How can I override the default Windows Explorer file operation progress dialog with a custom MC modal progress dialog during copy/move operations? Attempted to modify the MC settings to make the progress indicator persistent post-operation, but it defaults to the built-in Explorer progress dialog, which auto-closes upon completion, preventing customization or persistence.
P.S: Maybe it's 'cause I have TeraCopy installed, & when I initiate a file operation it gives me a popup to choose to handle it through either Explorer or TeraCopy, that's why ?

You want to show the MC fileoperation progress dialog when you copy with Windows Explorer ? No MC can't replace things in Windows.

You can configure the MC fileoperation dialog not to autoclose in core settings.

When you tell MC do copy using internal methods. it will use Internal dialog.. If you copy using windows it will show Windows progress.

Thank you, Mathias ! Sorry for the late reply, I was having probs accessing MC servers and d'ling updates, that's why. :D

I had lots of AI and other Bots flooding the server I think was been able to block most of them now
