You have been subscribed to a public bug:
I was doing a large backup of files from an SSD drive to a external USB drive
using rsync running in a terminal window.
I then opened up a new file manager window and then (i think) I clicked on the
same SSD drive (that was being copied) to get its properties (I wanted to see
how much disk space was used up).
I then got a dialog popup on the screen (I have a screenshot of this
attached) saying the following ....
"There was an error while getting the sharing information"
Failed to execute child process "net" (No such file or directory)
At this point all the file manager windows were unresponsive. They could
not be closed, but I think they could be moved and they could come to
foreground etc.
In the end I had to crash power off my laptop. I took me 4 hours to
chkdsk\recover file systems on both my external USB hard drives and the
SSD as well (done using Win10 because they were all NTFS drives).
Also as an aside (this is probably another bug)... every so often a file
manager window will freeze on its righthand side. You can click on
various drives on the lefthand side but it never updates the righthand
side to show the file\folders on that clicked drive. I end up closing
the filemanager window and opening up a new one.
