Description Thorsten Sick 2015-07-26 16:44:51 UTC 
When I copy large folders (3-4 h of copy) and one file fails while I am AFK, the whole copy process is stopped 'till I return and click on "ignore" or "ignore always" or whatever.

Improvement:
Notify the user, but continue to copy the other files and folders. Build a list of failed operations and let the user decide while the copy operation continues or towards the end of the copy operation. This speeds up failed cases (which I have currently, trying to rescue lots of old HDs).

Bonus: At the end if the operation have a list of failed files for manual inspection or troubleshooting.
