kb937287 just showed up in my Vista Updates and I installed it (please note: there is an advisory on MS's site to install this update indivdually - not along with any others - to avoid the "endless startup loop" problem some users are experiencing). After installing and rebooting my one major complaint about Vista disappeared!!! I was one of those users afflicted with the "Estimating time for deletion" message that appeared every time I deleted or moved a file or folder. For large files the delay could be quite significant. I ended up installing TeraCopy just to get around the problem. Well, now it's gone - deletions are instantaneous (as they should be) smile.gif">

Thanks for the tip.

I read about this "problem" a few days ago, and avoided it all-together until a viable solution was found. I did, with success, install only that update tonight and did not have the alleged booting issue.

Many thanks!

I actually installed it before the warning came out, like 2-3 days ago. I didn't delete anything since then that I can remember. If that fixes it, did it improve any speeds of file copy/move actions? I have TeraCopy installed also.

EDITED: I just installed SP1 for my Vista Business and removed TeraCopy. TC was moving a 430MB file at about 17MB per sec. I disabled it and Vista was able to move the same file at over 30MB per sec after the Sp1 update. This was slower than you could ever imagine before TC and SP1. All this was using a USB External drive to copy the file onto. Every file copy/move smokes on my Raptors like it should now.
