Delay when deleting files
Posted: 04 Oct 2011 11:16
Hi Donald, Hi XY-Gurus,
i upgraded to XY V10.30.0009 a few days ago using at 2 PCs with one WInXP and the other with Win7-x64.
When i delete a file, i normally press the DEL button and move my hand quickly to the enter button and press it immediately to dismiss the confirmation dialog. I don't want to disable the confirmation at all, but mostly know what i'm doing and so i don't read the dialog and go quickly over it. That worked fine for all prior versions of XY.
Since the update mentioned above, there is a notable delay (0,5-1 sec.) between pressing the DEL button and the dialog popping up. That won't hurt me really if, yes if the immediate followup ENTER-Keypress will go through to XY instead of the dialog box.
That results then e.g. when i want to delete a folder, that XY enters the folder before the dialog pops up, and so the folder is locked and cannot be deleted. The same is true e.g. for a startable file (e.g. a music file or whatever), resulting that the file gets locked by the starting application (player in this example) playback the file (what i don't want) and make it impossible to delete it.
YES i know, your advise can be "So wait a bit before pressing ENTER". And YES that would work, if, yes if i'm not too dumb to remember that i have to wait till the dialog opens. I never remember that and ran into that annoyance 100times a day.
Also, that behaviour was not there in earlier versions of XY...so something has changed somehow.
So my question is, is there a chance to get the fast responding behaviour back in the next version and or are there any new settings i may change to get this behaviour back?
This is not really a bug i suppose, but i had no idea where would be a better place to ask than in the bug forum.
Thanks for reading and hopefully a positive response.
Greetings
