Saying the copy is done when it's actually in progress or waiting, is really something I don't get either

Yes it's the most retarded thing i've ever seen, i've been using linux for the past 8 months because they say windows is not safe and has bugs, i jumped from one distro to another, i think i've tried at least 6 of them wasting a lot of time to tweak and fix things, as a result my productivity has decreased 98% and now i've also lost a shitload of coins because it shows you files copied when it actually has not.

Fuck linux again never more!

Sounds more like he just messed up and doesnt want to admit it. How many NMC are in this wallet that its even worth it?

Does it really matter how much i have lost?
BTW this is the issue https://community.linuxmint.com/idea/view/885 apparently i'm not the only one who has lost data due to this stupid linux behaviour.

Man I am sorry for your loss. I wish I had some input to help recover your coins.

FYI though,

Code:

sync

is your best friend

https://linux.die.net/man/8/sync

also bud, always backup your keys. If a chunk of rock falls from the sky and smashes your computer, it's not going to care what OS you are running.

I have another 2 copy of the same wallet, but i made those backups BEFORE i decided to encrypt my wallet, so i was not been able to recover the private keys generated after encryption.
For that reason i didn't put too much attention while backing up the hard disk, i was confident i could always recover my coins form the other backups i had, if something went wrong when i formatted my laptop.
Imagine how i felt when i plug in the hard disk and found out the .vdi file was not there and after that i recovered from another backup and found out most of the coins were missing. Embarrassed
