"Skip Size Counting" button on Copy/Delete dialogs

Post by *Valentino »

I have "Calculate space occupied by subdirectories before copying/deleting" option ON, and I like it to be ON. But when I copy or delete large dir, especially from network drives, it takes too long to calculate their size before the action is actually started. I'd like to have the third button (in addition to Cancel and Background) - "Skip Size Count" or smth - to start copying/deleting immediately.

BTW, when I press Delete, the progress dialog is displayed right away, so I can click Cancel without waiting this counting to be completed. But when I press Copy, the progress window is displayed only after counting is completed, so I have to wait all this time, nervously tattooing on the table... :)

I’m in too!

I equally feel lonely about this thread: http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=1114 any thoughts?!

By the way… what’s with the frequent avatar image changes Valentino? Is it the v6.0 breeze or something? ;)

When I started using this product it was still called Windows Commander, and I'm just now finding out about this. Ugh. I'm so slow.

I believe that this is no longer true in TC 10.51 :-(

Hitting ESC during the calculation phase does not interrupt the calculation, but the whole copy/move process for me. It definitely worked before version 10 of Total Commander.
