[STW] T.com Fatal Error - Background window not found!

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

[STW] T.com Fatal Error - Background window not found!

Post by *St. Wolf »

Screenshot (Right-click and Save as...) - this is ZIP (PNG inside) file with JPG extension - rename it or just unpack in T.com.

In order to delete tons of garbage from work I transfer it to home by DVD disks and USB Flash drive. On the picture operation Rename/Move (F6) in background (F2) from my SanDisk 2GB failed with fatal error message.
Caption: <Error!>

The very first time I see this "<Error!>" -)
I press OK, close BT window and again F6-F2 on the same files - all OK! So, I can't reproduce this again...

System: WinXP SP3 Pro
T.com: 7.04a

This can happen when the system is very busy: This is what happens when you start copying in the background:
1. TC starts background transfer manager (separate thread)
2. TC waits for a few seconds until the window appears
3. TC sends the names of the files to be copied to the background window

You get this error if the window doesn't appear for several seconds. Apparently it appeared shortly afterwards in your case. Just restart the file operation then.
