Post subject:  Windows 8 Copy UI option?

I do realize that Classic Shell is meant to make the start menu behave more like XP, along with Explorer, and while I do appreciate the XP style File Conflict dialog replacement option, I was curious if it was possible to implement a Windows 8+ File Copy UI replacement as an additional option into Classic Explorer alongside the XP option. I'm not big on Windows 8x and Windows 10 hates my hardware (or something, how ridiculous), but I was wondering if something like that could be considered if it's possible. Watching how fast it's transferring on a graph is...just yes.

Do you mean, implement it for Windows 7?

Indeed. (Late reply, sorry) I mean, if it's at all possible.

No, not possible - for the same reason as why the Classic Explorer UI doesn't work on Windows 8 and later. The dialog is functionally different, not just the way it looks. It is not possibly to simply replace the UI. What you ask is only possible if the entire copying engine is replaced.

Oh... Nevermind then. :( I can see why it would take more than just a visual replacement now that you mention it. Thanks for answering though.
