Crashing when copying many/big files

In the last time the program crashes here always when copying/moving large/many files. I've just tested it with a folder containing about 500 images (380 MB). I've copied this folder to another folder and the program crashed:

Code: Select all

AppName: trackerv3.exe	 AppVer: 4.0.0.35	 ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.1560	 Offset: 0001a86b

Need more infos:
- copy between different drives or same drive?
- selected many files or one folder containing many files?
- did part of the job before crashing, or didn't even start?
- your OS

tnx

Second thought: there might be a problem with one of the files or filenames! Maybe you can try to narrow it down by trying to copy the first half, then the second half. If both halves work, but the whole thing doesn't, then I agree the size or number is the problem (but this is really unlikely...).

Both

One folder. See below.

It crashes when it finishes. The files are all copied.

>- your OS
WinXP.


I've tested again:
1. I've splitted it into more parts and it works.
2. Then I've tried to select all 500 files and to copy the via right drag. This doesn't work: "Datei kann nicht kopiert werden. Der angegebene Dateiname ist ungültig oder zu lang. Geben Sie einen anderen Dateinamen an." With Explorer this isn't a problem.
3. Then I've copied the whole folder over the previously copied folder. This also works.
4. Then I've deleted the copied folder and copied it again. Now it crashes.

Thanks for testing!

Actually I could generate a crash due to a change from 20050408. It was easy to fix. Now let's see if this was your crash...
