Moving or deleting files freezes for a minute or more

[kvon]

Clean new install - Total Commander 11.01 on a new Windows 11 Pro laptop. Sometimes - more than occasionally - when I move or delete a file in Total Commander it hangs for a very, VERY long time doing the operation. Haven't timed it but it's definitely more than a minute, and the app is locked during that time, can't do anything else.

Any ideas, please?

How do you delete ?
Context menu or function key

[kvon]

Delete key. Or sometimes Shift-Delete to bypass the 'Recycle Bin'.

Batch rename (Ctrl-M) is also affected - I'm doing a rename on 9 selected files, it looks like it suffers the same delay for each individual file. The whole operation took close to 5 minutes.

Overreacting Antivirus program, maybe?

Disable your Anti-Virus program for testing.
