The directory xxx could not be deleted -> FOR ALL

I've moved old Users folder backup to another subfolder in a folder requiring admin permissions. TC have asked me for about 100 times the following:

Code: Select all

---------------------------
Total Commander
---------------------------
The directory
Links
could not be deleted!
---------------------------
OK   Cancel
---------------------------
It was REALLY ANNOYING, I couldn't do anything else because of these popups that have interrupted a lot of my keypresses and required an action...

Please change this message box to a dialog with 'OK for all' button or maybe postpone these questions.

It seems that I've found the reason why TC couldn't delete so many folders: these folders contained desktop.ini which is in my ignore list. I don't know if TC should move ignored items when top-level folder is copied... perhaps yes.

Anyway hundreds of confirmations are too superfluous.
