Bug Description

how to reproduce:

open up a folder with lots of files in subdirectories (in my case, 115 files from about 300 directories)

hit CTRL+f and search for a file pattern

hit CTRL+a to select all the results, copy to clipboard and paste into a new directory (or drag and drop). The copied files list won't match the search results.

In my case, a copy of 115 search results only copies the first 13 files. I can copy each file from the results lists individually with no problems. If I copy in groups of 13 files, I can get anything from 13 files actually copied, to only 2.
