Do not count subdirs before FS plugin delete

TC anyway doesn't show second progress bar in delete progress dialog, so this calculation is just waste of user's time.
Also TC should hide "to:" label in progress dialog when it deletes files - there is no target while deleting.

The first progress bar shows the number of deleted files, so TC has to count them first.
You can use the VistaDelete method where directories as moved as a whole to Recycle Bin if you don't want the files counted. However, this requires Windows Vista or 7.

BTW, I'm deleting files within FS plugin folder, so I think that VistaDelete doesn't work here.
Well, you're right, if I have counting subdirs before deleting enabled, progress bar shows overall progress.

Yes, sorry, that was for normal files only. But the counting also affects file system plugins.

BTW it may be good to separate counting before copying and deleting - when I delete, I'm often don't need calculation, but when copy, I need it.
