Many, many thanks, Ino!
Works like a charm.

Dear Experts, One more humble request from me. How do I make the following rename change? Replace this "-(textwithinbrackets).mp3" with ".mp3"? I want to get rid of "-(textwithinbrackets)". Example: Doyle, A C_Silver Blaze_BBC_1992-(edited).mp3 > Doyle, A C_Silver Blaze...

Looks like my system is the culprit.
When I turn on my computer the delay is hardly noticeable.
In the afternoon, the delay gets longer.

Seems I'm working too much! )

Cheers
Tim

Of course I will!

Efharisto, ether!
Mind-boggling.
Your approach is much smoother.
I really should study regexp's!

Once again, thank you very much indeed.

Jan Rysavy wrote:Tim, your first posts are from 2006. Did you notice these delays before AS 2.52?
Or, does it start with installation of AS 2.52?

Not sure, but I guess it started with 2.52 (Beta).

Tim, what about operations such as View File or Change Attributes? Please try to disable Options > Configuration > Icon Overlays > Display custom icon overlays option. Thanks, Jan. OK, turned it off.
