I have a very hughe psd file with lots of layers. I need a way to do like a "copy merged" feature but pasting the result with layers instead of a flatten image.

Or in order words like a crop but into a new document instead of croping the whole original psd.

EDIT: As many don't understand I will try to expand:

I only want a portion of the original psd. When you use Rectangular Marquee tool and select a portion of the psd, and then you click Edit -> Copy Merged , and then you click New file and paste you get a flatten image. I want the same but instead of a flatten image, I want the original layers of that portion I selected using marquee tool.

If that possible? A similar workaround I found is using the marquee tool, then click on Crop document. But my psd is so hughe that take minutes to crop it, and then I have to undo steps to get the original psd back.

UPDATE 2: When I do crop I get tons of popups saying the following:

That's the reason I was wondering if there is a faster way.

I hope it's clear, Im not a designer guy.
