Zipping multiple files seems to add them one by one

Post by clarkedesign »

When you select lots of files and folders and right click to add them to zip file.

The process seems to do this one file at a time, with lots of dialog boxes popping up.

Rather than when using zip in normal windows explorer, you right click and get a nice single progress dialog showing each file being added.

Cancelling just cancel the single file being added rather than the whole zip process.

Just done this with 500 files and it's locked up my PC for 20 minutes whilst it runs and I cannot abort it.
I've got windows popping up every second......
Thanks,
Sean Clarke

Hmm, must be another Win10 novelty. Works fine in Win 8.
... lots of dialog boxes popping up.
What are they about?
