Delete Process Very Slow.
Not necessarily the actual delete process, but the Calculating Phase prior to the deletion.

1,000 to 1,500 per hour. UGH
I have 2.11 Million files.

Tried local and off a NAS. Same performance.

Great software, but tried a couple things (to recycle, not recycle, etc.)

Any thoughts - using the latest version. 4.1.1

Paid for the full version.

Any thoughts?

2.11 Million files to delete? That's going to take a while whatever method!

Have you tried unchecking the 'Via windows shell' option? This should cause the program to delete the files directly, rather than sending them to Windows (explorer) to delete. You won't get the initial delay - unchecking the 'Recycle bin' option in combination with this should be the fastest.
