| | Re: Is it possible to disable "Calculating time to copy/move file..." Truly the most annoying feature of Vista. I've had it take 15 minutes to calculate a single 4k file.

I use RDP to mange one of my servers. From XP I can copy and paste files twice as fast as I can from Vista. -- BSchwarz Posted via http://ms-os.com Forum to Usenet gateway |

| | Re: Is it possible to disable "Calculating time to copy/move file..." Why do you all act like this isn't in XP? I get this message all the time when trying to move or copy "many" files from within XP. It's nothing new although it shouldn't happen on a 4k file.

| | Re: Is it possible to disable "Calculating time to copy/move file..." It may take you 2 minutes perhaps because you do not know what you are doing, dumbass! If you don't like Vista, that is fine, just don't troll Vista NG's. "michail iakovou yos" <1@1.1> wrote in message news:%23wQbMhPNHHA.4172@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...

| | Re: Is it possible to disable "Calculating time to copy/move file..." Better yet, he could block your posts from downloading. I agree that this is a big problem. I have had little files I try to delete get to 20 hours remaining, that delete just fine running ccleaner. Something is WRONG.

| | Re: Is it possible to disable "Calculating time to copy/move file..." Agreed, something IS wrong however I don't blame Vista. I can not reproduce this and I have many machines at my disposal. One disgustingly overpowered AMD machine (home) and the rest of them from work which are all Intel hardware. No such problem. I blame drivers.
