No, it operates in whatever thread you call it from. However, it

But that shouldn't matter too much for your application -- it means
that the progress wheel may only update between files, but that
should still be often enough for the user to see that it's working.
A progress bar might be even better.
I went with a ProgressWheel for this one, as all I want is some
indication to the user that at least something is happening;
I ended up ceating a method that calls:
Sub ShowProgressWhell
(
ProgressWheel1.Visible = True
ProgressWheel1.Refresh
)
End Sub
This gets called every couple of rows in the thread, to keep the
ProgressWheel up on the screen;
otherwise it vanishes so quickly you cannot really see if, as I
originally put it only once at the start of the CopyFileTo,
then at the end I set the visibility to False;
