Oh yes I'm using 22r7.

Also the config.

You didn't say whether he was copying to or from the Windows directory that is mounted as a harddrive, but just from glancing at the screenshot, I'm guessing that it was copying to that directory. If so, then the filename that it appeared to be copying at the moment it crashed may be the cause of the problem. In AmigaDos, a file called ".info" is perfectly valid and it contains (as I recall) info regarding icons and their placement within the directory where the .info file appears. On Windows boxes, a filename consisting of only an extension (such as ".info") is not valid, and I'm thinking that explains the crash. The .info files are expendable, and if your friend deletes them from his source disk, his problem will likely be solved.

I can't reproduce the crash and file with only extension is legal at least under Windows XP + NTFS, and anyway, WinUAE uses __uaefsb__-files to store "illegal" filenames.
