Hello, I am copying some files from EXT3 drive to NTFS. Some of those files contain characters that NTFS can't handle, so they can be read, but not written (usually metadata files in my case). So totalcmd reports an Error dialog that says something like "Error: Cannot write d:\Backup\blah:blah:$blah" and there are only buttons like Skip, Retry and Abort. Is it possible to add "Skip all" button there?
It would be also great to add this in the initial copy dialog similary to "Skip all which cannot be opened for reading" option.
Thank you
I wanted to post a picture too, but I wasn't allowed...

How do you access the EXT3 drive? Via a plugin locally? Or over a network?

The plugin didn`t work for me, so I used EXT2 IFS from www.fs-driver.org.ghisler(Author) wrote:How do you access the EXT3 drive? Via a plugin locally? Or over a network?
The problem occured at regular files too, copying stopped at about 70% and then the write error, but they were probably sparse files. But I don't need to copy any of those "bad" files, and I want Total Commander to skip them all...

I see - TC just sees file system errors on a local disk, which normally occurs only in case of a hardware error. Because such a bug is very serious (possible harddisk failure) there is no "skip all".

Maybe - but you wouldn't know which files are good and which are bad then.
