Cant cancel file extraction
A free file archiver for extremely high compression

I was extracting a 4G lzma file and then tried to stop it before its finished (I realized that it will fail soon because I am low of disk space on C:). The cancel button was totally unresponsive. There is only a wait cursor and the extraction dialog did not permit interaction.

This bug report was created two years ago, what is priority 5?
Bump 2018-08-19 with latest stable version 18.05.
Just was extracting a folder of zips. Realised I'd chosen the wrong option. Hit escape to cancel. Pressed cancel. Now program is still responsive but doing nothing. Keep getting dialogue "Are you sure you want to cancel?" When I click Yes just dumps me back to the 7-zip extracting interface where I can click cancel yet again to no avail.
This error could not be replicated after I force quit 7-zip! Next extraction with same files proceeded just fine. That said, I did change options from Extract here to Extract...
Must've been one of those 'so rare that it can't be replicated reliably' things.
