[8rc2] Copying to protected folders As Administrator fails

[cwahlgren]

Hi,

On my new install of Windows 7 SP1 I can't copy plugins to the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Total Commander" folder. TC gives option All As Administrator, but it still fails. Copying the same files with Ctrl-C Ctrl-V from within TC works (also asks All As Administrator).

Not confirmed. It works for me just fine. What error do you see?

What's the SOURCE folder? You can't copy to protected folders from, for example, a network share. Why? Network shares are user-specific, so even if you can see it, the admin user can't see it. Solution: First copy the file from the server to some unprotected local directory, and then to program files.

Source folder - you were right there. It works when you copy the files to a local folder first. But the error message says confusingly "Access denied on file X", where X refers to the file on the destination path, not on the source path? Also, how come it works when using Ctrl+C, Ctrl-V (or via Explorer)? I've also tested with the current version 7.56a which behaves the same as 8.0rc2.

Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V uses the Explorer method. I don't know how the Explorer handles this, maybe by copying the file to TEMP first?
