    20 second delay when copying files or creating folders


    Hello,There is a 20 second delay when I'm copying files or creating folders. I'm on Windows Pro 21H2. It started about two days ago. All I can think about as changes are installing NVIDIA display drivers and installing Davinci Resolve. I uninstalled both but it doesn't help. Then I tried clean boot, disabling all non-Microsoft services and all startup programs, it doesn't help. Then I booted to Safe Mode and it works normally. So I need to find out what Safe Mode does to fix the problem to solve it in normal boot, I will be glad if you can help.Best Regards

    :)

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
