Description Sylvain 2019-02-09 20:50:29 UTC
Oftentimes I use Dolphin to manage different disks and different partitions systems. This is prone to producing errors, because some files on my ext4 partitions ext4 have weird characters in their filenames (notably two dots, exclamation mark and interrogation mark) which are incompatible with exfat FS.

When such an error happens, Dolphin asks what to do about it (Ignore, Retry etc) and it seems the operation is suspended until the user would prompt in. This is quite inconvenient as it prevents getting away from a potentially long task that one hopes would complete after a while.

Ideally I suppose the task would carry on running in the background, and potential new errors add up to the error window list (instead of triggering multiple windows). In my case the system could simply suggest to replace the problematic characters.
