problem missing windows transfer files dialog when use ctrl+c and ctrl+v

Post by *danielgump »

1. When I use ctrl+c in one Explorer and ctrl+v to paste file in another Explorer, the transfer files dialog correctly popup.
2. When I use ctrl+c in Explorer and ctrl+v to paste file in Total Commander, the transfer files dialog don't show but the files copy successfully.
https://ibb.co/xtTRRycD - copy files
https://ibb.co/Qv4C8pGf - already pasted files and don't show any dialog
3. I already uninstall Total Commander and delete all configuration then update to the last version 11.55 RC7, but can't resolve the problem.
4. My computer OS is Microsoft Windows 11.
5. Somebody can help me? Thank you very much.
6. Sorry for the poor English.

Not confirmed on Windows 11 24H2. Can anyone else reproduce this?

For me, a dialog in Explorer only happens for more than one file.
TC never shows a dialog.

WIndows 10 and 11 I don't get a copy transfer dialog when copying (ctrl+c) files from explorer into TC (ctrl+v). They just appear in the TC panel (folder).

I only get a dialog to replace/skip/compare files when a file name already exists.

As discussed here, this seems to be a Windows bug inttroduced by Windows update 'KB5063060'.

It's not even a Total Commander specific problem, it happens in any program using the "File open" dialog, e.g. in notepad.exe. Just switch to viewing all files, then do a Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V on a big file twice. Notepad becomes unresponsive until the file has been copied. Can you confirm that on your system too?

Yes, You are right. I start notepad.exe then select "File->Open" and switch to viewing all files.
Select a 500MB avi file then use Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V. The new file just copied without show any dialog.
