Oh - I would have to remove the Thinkpad's battery to clear its memory, right? It (Lenovo Thinkpad X395) doesn't have easily replaceable battery. Never mind, let's hope the drive disconnection and laptop reboot is sufficient.

It's external, I have 13" Thinkpad. The drive was disconnected for a couple of minutes (during reboot). I'l see if this happens again. I live in the Czech republic. Thanks for advice!

The problem was in the burner much likely. When I chose to reboot the system, the screen went off and nothing was happening until I unplugged the burner from the computer. It then rebooted. I verified the BD-R, there was no problem at all (I was especially focused on the 80% part), RPM stable and read speed went constantly up. So I guess the drive just stopped communicating with Imgburn during the verification process. BTW this is the graph of the burning process, nothing suspicios at 80%:

It's been in "Waiting for Read Thread (Device)..." state for about half an hour since I clicked on the red rectangle button for cancelling. When I want to close the program (the usual cross in the top right corner), I get a message: Please be patient, I'm already cancelling as fast as I can! But nothing's happening. Going to kill the process, reboot and attempt the verification again. EDIT: what a shame that Imgburn cannot do a repeated directory verification, it can only verify an image. :-(

Maybe. One would actually expect Verbatim to be not so bad. (it is not LTH, has nearly black recording side) But I still would expect Imgburn to time-out. Now the time elapsed is on 1:52:51.

Does ImgBurn have some sort of a time-out? It has already been over 80 minutes since a BD-R verification started. It stopped on 80%. The drive completely stopped rotating, no head movement can be heard, the LED is off. It is already at the room temperature by now. And ImgBurn is still counting time. This is my 4th BD-R burned, the previous 3 were OK. The log: I 09:54:19 ImgBurn Version 2.5.8.0 started!

Hello Lightning UK, I think you should make "Include System Files" and "Include Hidden Files" checked in default setting. Yesterday I installed Imgburn 2.3.2.0 on a new computer, then added about 4 GB of files in build mode (user profiles, lots of hidden files), but the calculator kept sayin - 1,5 GB. Well, weird behavior as Total Commander indicated 4,2 GB. I didn't have enough time to investigate and thought it was some issue with the calculator, so I burnt the project. However, after that I examined freshly burnt disc with TC and found you know what - 1,5 GB of files. :-) Then I looked more carefully into Imgburn settings and spotted those System and Hidden files options and checked them immediately and burnt the disc again correctly. I know it was my fault. But if it is not a problem to check these two settings in default, many future users would be grateful. When I want to burn a directory - I want to burn everything, right? No matter if it is hidden or system. Regards Jack
