selected files

If I select a group of folders, then tell XY to move them elsewhere and it finds there is an existing file with the same name on the destination, I can tell it to skip that file.
It used to be that when that process finishes, I would end up with a group of files that remained selected.
I noticed in the last few versions (sorry, I am not sure when) those files do NOT remain selected.
Is this a setting I screwed up? I found the "old" behavior very helpful.

You mean the group of files that were not moved?

Yes. I use to be able to treat them as a group (move, delete, whatever) but now they are no longer selected after.

Yes, good find. Fixed in next beta.

You (and it) are wonderful!
And the fix (of course) works!
Thank you!

This is happening again (the last few versions...). Is it fixable again?

Confirmed, probably. I'm not aware of any changes that could have caused this.
1) What is your setting here: Configuration | General | Refresh, Icons, History | Auto-Refresh | Refresh during file operations
2) You don't know by chance with which version it started?

2) I am sorry, I do not.

And "Refresh during file operations" was always ticked, also when it still worked as you wish?

I believe so. No changes here as far as I know.

ATM I cannot see what causes it. Unticking "Refresh during file operations" will solve your issue. Why not just do it?

Tested it now with v23.90.0407 - 2023-01-07 20:12 (just a random pick) and this works just like today's version. So I don't know what you mean by "the last few versions..." but nothing changed here since 2023-01-07. The fix was on 2022-11-20.
