Waiting on deleting directory

Hi All,

I use dopus 12.6 x64 on win 10 x64, when I delete file, it compeleted immediately, but if I delete a directory even within only 1 text file, it stays at 99% for much time, I have unchecked calculate the files in directory yet. so what's the problem?

thanks

Do you mean when deleting to the Recycle Bin?

That entire operation is done by Windows, including the progress dialog. Opus just gives Windows a list of files to move to the Recycle Bin and Windows does the rest. You should see the same delay if you do the same thing from File Explorer. I often ask myself what Windows is doing when Recycling Files. I have a feeling that if the operations takes long enough for the progress dialog to appear at all then it will keep the progress dialog on screen for a minimum amount of time, even if the operation has completed, to avoid the dialog appear and immediately disappear in a flash. (I don't agree with that design, but I feel the same about a lot of things in Windows. :slight_smile: )

If you delete without using the Recycle Bin, Opus handles everything by itself and there should not be any strange delays.

Exactly as what you said, and the dialog is explore style, so just waiting:joy:
