How to remove that copy/move confirm dialog ?

Post by *yabbah »

I just wonder if there is a way to remove the (annoying as I see it) dialog box that popup each time I try to copy or move a file/folder ?

Hope anyone understand me.

Configuration - Options, Misc, Get confirmation before... Is it what you want?

You can as follow, show Configuration dialog> Copy/Delete page and check the option "Use Explorer delete method (faster, cannot handle comments)"

after that you have to remove delete confirmation for Windows too, Right click on RecycleBin and uncheck the option "Display delete confirmation dialog"

Thanks, but this doesn't have any effect on copy/paste as I see it ?

:) Hello !

• I always copy¦move via Drag&Drop. I have disabled the confirmation for D&D in the Options >> Misc. page,
that does the trick to me for a decade…

*ts4242 ,
thanks for the instructions. For some reason, it worked several times, and the confirmation dialog is popping up again.
Please advise.

It looks like this only happens to you.
There are no user users complained on this setting.
If you wincmd.ini contains the setting it works.

Help / About
shows you the active configuration files.

In the [Confirmation] section there should be
MouseActions=0

I found the file. Thanks.
But no keywords like Confirmation or Mouse in this file.

in this case just add the two lines at the end of wincmd.ini file, save it and restart TC.

Code: Select all

[Confirmation]
MouseActions=0
