following files/folders could not be deleted: add Retry all

Sometimes during (to be more accurate, near the end of) files/folders deleting process, the dialog like that appears:
---------------------------
Total Commander
---------------------------
The following files/folders could not be deleted
test\folder1\
test\folder2\
test\folder3\
test\folder4\
test\folder5\
test\folder6\
test\folder7\
test\folder8\
...
Try again?
---------------------------
Retry Cancel
---------------------------
It appears probably due to usage of some directory while deleting, since after pressing Retry
the dialog re-appears again, but without test\folder1\ line. Pressing Retry over and over till this list is gone leads to getting all this paths removed.

I suggest to add "Retry to all" button to this dialog, so user won't have to press "Retry" for each path in the list.

Similar suggestion for another similar dialog:
---------------------------
Total Commander
---------------------------
The directory

somename

could not be deleted!
---------------------------
ОК Отмена
---------------------------
The differences from starting post dialog:
a) it looks that this applies only to directories, with single directory name always listed in message;
b) after pressing OK in the message, we can see that mentioned directory really not removed.

So the suggestion for dialog: one more button, "Remember OK for all".
