Copy file from remote desktop

Post by palota »

I need to transfer big files from remote server to my computer. If I copy file in remote desktop and paste it into xplorer2, then the xplorer2 window is blocked. I can't do nothing else and must wait until files are downloaded.

if you must use drag-drop and the files are "virtual" (that is not real filesystem stuff), then blockages do occur
I don't have a solution, only a workaround. Before you start the copy, clone a xplorer2 window with CTRL+N, and use it for the copy. The "other" window will remain responsive.
