Comment 1 Uwe Scholz 2017-10-20 11:35:43 UTC 
Thank you very much for taking the time to report this bug. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it on Xfce under Fedora25. This seems to be specific to Manjaro?

Did you try the same without being root? On which file system are you working? Does this happen only in v1.8.0 - can you try the same in v1.6.4?
Comment 2 LAZA 2017-10-20 15:06:19 UTC 
Without root permissions i cannot write on the external drive.

Filesystems is ext4 on both sides.

It did not happen in 1.6.4 before.
Sorry, there is no simple downgrade cause on Manjaro the package is not (officially) supported - but it is in AUR and can so easily compiled.
