Hi John: The second window does sound like it could be hanging for that reason except I cant find anything else in the dialog other than the transfer message and a do you want to cancel message with yes and no buttons neither of which seem to do anything.
Usually if Microsoft pops up a window or dialog it works but this puppy wont go away. I havent so far been able to read the dialog with the mouse just getting the ping ping sound trying to read it with the mouse keys on the numpad. When I test deleted a file in the documents folder with WE turned off using Narrator I, apparently, didn't get this window. Since others have encountered this problem I will do a few more tests to try and nail down the cause or better define the problem if I can. Again, I am running windows 8.1 and don't know if it applies to windows 7 machines. Rick USA From: Jonathan C.

Perhaps you don't have permissions or it is a file that is in use. You should be able to read the text of the dialog with the numpad keys.

I can not close these dialogs with alt f4 or ctrl f4 or escape. In the "Progress" window it says to use alt-space bar and that seems to work sometimes but the transfer dialog will not close unless I ReBoot. I cant tell if these are WindowEyes related, scripts, or not but I am guessing that might be the case. If I delete an item using only narrator the delete works as expected and these dialogs do not come up. In the WindowEyes Script Manager I see things like "Insert Key" and the "Jaws Keys" scripts running. Are these needed for anything to let windoweyes run normally with a desktop machine and standard keyboard? I tried turning off the "Progress Indicator" script but that didnt seem to help. I sent a question like this to the WindowEyes Info list but after an hour it has not posted back to my InBox in Outlook so that may be down or not working well again - dont know. Also, a couple of times I have gotten a error occured in outlook enhance, couldnt easily copy and paste the error text of the message. Evidently it is not a custom dialog geared for accessibility. there may be some script based hot key to copy the text of the message but I just dont know it. All in all quite frustrating. Do you know if the delete situation and those windows are script related and, if so, which scripts do I need to unload? Rick USA
