Does not respond after mass rename

The program stays unresponsive after renaming 10-30 thousand files. My template is "$N.html". I verified through Windows Explorer that the renaming operation completed successfully.

if you are in large icon or thumbnail mode this can be just a very long/slow refresh progress. See if things improve if you disable autorefresh from View menu

Holy shitballs. Why do you need to rename 30,000 files?

I concur - we're curious, why do you have - and then also have a need to rename - so many files?

Maybe Nikos will get around to redesigning the entire app with threading in mind so this won't be a problem. I'm sure he has 3 months of free time on his hands to do this, right?...
