I tried
AlwaysRemoveInBackground=1
AlwaysDeleteInBackground=1
in wincmd.ini with no success. Any help?

Why did you not read the help about the wincmd.ini settings
Then you would know that no such options exists .
You can use a seperate TC instance for large delete jobs.

Kosarar,

Normally when executing deletions, it is possible to manually push the dialog to a background thread. IIRC Mr. Ghisler stated several reasons not to put delete actions into the Background Transfer Manager.

I am so happy to know there is some reasons to not let me what I want and some ways to partially fulfill my wish. But I really do not see what exactly is wrong with it - when I delete some files I often press Tab and Enter to put it into the background and nothing bad has happened yet.

Hi Kosarar,

Don't get me wrong, your wish is a valid one. I just gave you a workaround which I was not sure you knew about. And I've read in the past that TC author had some reasons for not (yet?) implementing background deletion. Anyhow, place your request in the TC Suggestions forum, I'm sure Christian will respond.

Regards, EricB

OK, thank you.
