TC hangs when deletes files from all files/dirs listing (Ctrl+B)

Sometimes TC hangs when deletes files from listing of all files and subfolders in current folder (Ctrl+B). The window appears with "Seeking" - and TC doesn't respond. Here's that window: Image:

Total Commander shows "Seeking" while counting files in these subfolders for the progress bar. Maybe the directory contains hard links which lead to an infinite loop)? You could use the tool "process monitor" from
www.sysinternals.com (now part of Microsoft) to find out where Total Commander is hanging.

No, particularly, I delete files from this directory once a month. There are always three folders, each of which contains 4 or 5 Excel files - nothing suspicious. Today, I got this message again.

It's my bad - I forgot to mention that hanging occurs after all files were deleted.

That's strange, never heared of such a problem. Does it only happen when deleting to recycle bin (F8 or Del), or also when deleting directly (Shift+F8 or Shift+Del)?

As far as I remember, I selected them with right mouse button and dropped to F8 button (with right button pressed to emulate Shift+F8).
