I do not understand... It is showing that program is copying one MS Word file, which size is 38kB, for an hour or so...

It is also interesting, that task has ended (written in log), but task menu shows wheels sign on this task...

Thank you.

But now, there is another problem... The program is calculating its jobs for almost 2 hours, but backup is already runing... And no indication in task list, which task is in progress...

This is being calculated by the user interface (see the - in the size column) not by the engine. If you have such insanely big numbers of small files, perhaps its a good idea to disable this at Visuals-Show size of task, because every time you change something in your task, the program will re-calculate the sizes.

I have already disabled Visuals -> Show size of task before, so I belive the "-" sign is for that reason in the size column. When I had this option checked, the app was crashing all the time... So yes, it is better to uncheck this option, if you have so much tiny files...

I noticed one more thing... When I click on "Run all tasks", in some cases nothing happens. Sometimes program says, that tasks are already in que... Then I delete the cue, click on "Run all tasks", but nothing happens again...
