TC7.5b7 bug: "Control deleted from background thread!&a
[update: 2009-09-15]
this bug has been fixed in TC 7.5 final.
confirmed with my test.
-----------------------
TC7.5b7 brought a new bug in unpack when access denied.
when you update some program, we often unpack from a zip file to overwrite the old version.
eg. unpack chrome.zip to replace the old chrome folder.
when chrome.exe is running, the replace will cause a message:
--------------------------------
Total CommanderTotal Commander
Access denied on file D:\Program Files\chrome\Chrome\chrome.exe!
Skip Cancel Rename
--------------------------------
but no matter which button was pressed, an error will occure:
---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
Control deleted from background thread!
---------------------------
Pls fix it, and it's better to add a "retry" button, just as the normal copy and overwrite.

Indeed it's a known error, it happens because that dialog is (by mistake) directly created from within a background thread.

This bug was reported on the russian forum and confirmed there. I can also confirm this bug and translate it here.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Pack 1.dll into 1.zip
2. Rename 1.zip into 1.dll
3. Have the same directory on both panels
4. Try to unpack 1.dll
5. Access denied message appears
6. Try to skip or rename
7. Error "Control deleted from the background thread" appears.
tested with TC7.5RC2 under WinXP SP3
TC7.04a don`t have this problem.

Thanks, I will check that. Btw, why is this in the English forum and not the bug reports forum?

The subject of this topic concerns a bug in TC7.5b7 - wich I replied to - but after re-reading the thread I can see that you also reported it for rc2 - sorry.
Anyway - I can confirm that the bug is fixed again i TC 7.50 Final
