Bug Description

Caja 1.4.0 from Nadia often hangs/freezes when trying to move or copy from external media such as a USB3 card reader (USB Mass Storage). I'm not sure if this is limited to USB3 devices or not, but the problem happens almost always when copying from my card reader. Two different USB3 card readers have been tried. The problem does not occur when using the command-line "cp" and "mv" commands. It also doesn't occur using Windows.

When Caja hangs in this way, all Caja windows become unresponsive. The only way to recover is to forcibly kill Caja and restart it. Files are only copied up until the freeze. This often results in partial files.

Caja just freeze after copying some more files from one directory to another.
