Copy (drag from everything) locks all everything instances

[Dorf]

Is there a way around this?

When drag files from everything to a slow device (usb drive, network share) all everything windows are locked until the operation completes

Currently there's no way around this, drag dropping is done in the UI thread.
If the drag dropping operation freezes, so will the Everything UI.

I need to move the drag dropping operation to its own thread, added to my TODO list, thanks.

Oh ok. Thank you for everything.

I have one sort of related issue, but i think it is Windows fault.
When doing that drag and drop to drive with limited space, the copy/move is aborted (only option is try again or cancel), even though there will be plenty of space due to overwritten files.

You could check that by doing the same with Windows Explorer & see if it gives you the same results?
