Nautilus progress bar don't appear when you Copy-Paste files to Desktop, and small files don't show that has been copied/moved succesfully in the circle indicator

[Ellinas Marios]

Hello,
When i Copy/Move Files from my Ext. Hdd to the Desktop the progress bar (circle indicator) dont appear at all i know its finished by the LED light on my Ext. Hdd. In the other hand when i use the Copy To/Move To from the right click context menu the indicator with progress appear and shows the progress of the Move/Copy.
Also when i Move/Copy small files the method doesn't matter in this case the circle indicator don't appear at all neither i get a message "Copied "File name" to "Destination"succesfully.
I attach a video s that shows both problems.

Thank you for your bug report. Is that specific to some devices? Do you get it when copying between local directories or from other drives? What sort of disk/filesystem is it?

Hello Sebastian,
Although I move back to Windows (*it was needed for my job).
I remember that I when was copying between local directories or from a directory to the my ext. HDD was behaving ok the problem appears when copying straight to the desktop (*not the folder).
If you see the video I attached I demonstrate well the problem.
Also the hdd was formatted as NTFS.

Thank you.
