title: Powershell Write-Progress bar not working on large files
body: <p>I'm having an issue with the write-progress command in Powershell v. 1.0.  When I run this script on test directories containing a few hundred files in Powershell ISE the progress bar works as advertised and recursively displays the names of all the files therein.  When I run it on our company domain with user home directories the progress bar does not move at all and $files.name only displays the top level directory names inside the folder such as "Desktop", "AppData", etc.  Any ideas on why this might be the case?  Thanks in advance for any help!</p>
  
  <pre><code>$path = "\\company\shares\campus\HomeDir\username"    
  $dest = "R:\Terminated"    
  $counter = 0    
  $files = gci $path -recurse            
  Foreach($file in $files)
           {
            Copy-Item $path $dest -recurse -force
            Write-Progress -Activity "Backing Up Terminated User HomeDir:" -status $file.name -PercentComplete ($counter / $files.count*100) 
            $counter++           
            }
  
           If ($Counter = $files.Count)
            {[System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Backup Complete.")} 
           Else 
            {[System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("File Backup Did Not Finish.")} 
  </code></pre>
