After performing Windows Update, in folder C:\Windows\servicing\LCU I have Package_for_RollupFix folders, which I usually delete.
1244 does not display file progress dialog when I delete these Package_for_RollupFix folders (using Shift+Del).

Re: Deleting folders
Thanks for the issue report w64bit,
This will occur when the path of one of the files you are deleting is longer than 259 characters.
When there is a really long filename, Everything will avoid going to the shell and delete the files with the OS.
Unfortunately, this means there's no nice shell delete dialog with progress status.
I'll consider showing my own dialog with progress status or just delete the really long filenames with the OS and do the rest with the shell.
