Wrong progress counting with huge ammount of data

[TC User]

Total Commander 11.56 has a bug with the progress counting.

I moved 23 files (total volume ~814 GB / each file between 25 and 100 GB).

TC is moving the first file - all good. When the 2nd file is moved the counter on the lover right side starts to count again from 0.

Expected counting (to get an idea what I mean):
15.000 M / 814.000 M
150.000 M / 814.000 M
480.000 M / 814.000 M
814.000 M / 814.000 M
DONE

TC counting (version 11.56):
15.000 M / 814.000 M
90.000 M / 814.000 M
[...]
10.000 M / 814.000 M
15.000 M / 814.000 M
[...]
10.000 M / 814.000 M
DONE

I hope my description is understandable. I am new to the forum and do not know how to paste screenshots in here.

Thank you for your bug fix!

Have you perhaps clicked on the file count in the liwer left or at the size count in the lover right of the copy dialog - that toggles between showing remaing or pending values: See: https://tcmd.madsenworld.dk/copycountintoggle.mp4

This happens when you move files within the SAME drive, and the direct move operation (via MoveFile) fails. Then Total Commander will first copy the file, and then delete the original. This may be necessary when the drive contains junctions, and source and target are on different physical volumes. But it also happens when something is locking the original. Since Total Commander expected to move all files directly, it doesn't use an overall progress for all files.
