I was trying to copy a file to a shared Windows drive.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Marking my own bug as "Incomplete" as both Ubuntu and gnome-commander versions are obsolete and I can no longer test with a shared Windows drive. Anyone affected by this bug should create a new report of their own using currently supported version of Ubuntu and gnome-commander so that their logs are submitted for analysis.
