| | copy file dialog with file information? Hi, is there a possibility to make the dialog show me the file that is actually copied? I like to watch the copy process, sometimes I sort out very large files, but as the dialog just shows file 17 of 208 this is not helpfull. Or is it time to go back to the command prompt? gushh |

Hi, There's no customizing the file copy dialog, you'd have to use the command prompt. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "gushh" <gunter.schmidt.mailbox@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:361ecb5f-c388-40de-b5ef-601d60cff9f8@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi, > > is there a possibility to make the dialog show me the file that is > actually copied?

Very much a letdown to click mroe information (or whatever the text) and find there is absolutely no useful information. Considering Vista improved our file copy and move experience by making it slower than a death march and reliable as a monkey typing, it would be nice to see file and full path info. |
