  1. File Transfer Dialog Box is 100% gone in win 10, no idea how to get it back, I can not reboot for another 17 days.

    I know it is copying the files as I see them in the other folder appearing when I refresh folder, but I have no idea if 2% is done or 80% is done…
    How do I get this window back?
