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?

Hi,

There's no customizing the file copy dialog, you'd have to use the command
prompt.

Robocopy copies files across much faster than Explorer.

I would absolutely love to have some actual information in that dialog
as well. 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.
