SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Extract archive (right click > Extract > Extract here) containing multiple files and will take a long time to extract (Firefox source code for example).
2. Browse other directories in any tab in Krusader while archive extraction is in progress.

OBSERVED RESULT
The archive continued to be extracted to the newly focused directories.

EXPECTED RESULT
The archive extracted to the original location until finished.
