Viewing Copy Progress in the Task Bar?

[Kelemvor]

Is there any way that when I'm copying a file I can view its progress right in the task bar Explorer window?

I like to do other things while waiting for files to copy and don't want to have to keep switching back to see if it's done yet. I have XP and if there's a way to do that within XP that'd be fine. Or if there's a tweak or add-in or even a 3rd party program just for copying the files that would show that, anything would be fine.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

If you minimize it then it'll give you the percentage in the taskbar.

Doesn't do that for me.

Things like Firefox and such do that but not Windows Explorer for copying. Unless this PC has something set wrong on it. When I minimize it it just has the name of the folder it's viewing. There's no minimize button on the actual copy progress box.

As much as I'd like there to be something like this as well, I just don't think there is anything like this out.

I found one program called Total Copy or something like that which had a percentage in the tack bar button, but then things seemed to copy really slow so I stopped using it.

Oh well.
