The FC file container brings all the files in one place. But since in my case all the files are already in the same folder, I do not need to use a container. In other words, placing all files in a single place is not the issue. The core issue is, what are the steps to find the files that are NOT con...

Thanks!

I would like to search for the string "HAB" (case-insensitive). This string may occur at the beginning of the name, in the middle or at the end. But it must not be part of a larger string (there must be no characters before and/or after "HAB", other than a space). In other words,...

Hi Often we have a list of files that are supposed to be converted to another format. For example- 1. Source file to object file (coding) 2. word/text file to pdf file 3. mp4 file to mp3 file (extracting audio from a video) 4. ogg to mp3 (format conversion). As a result of such conversion, we get pa...

Thanks! It works fine. I also added a hotkey, which makes it even faster. BTW I copied the parameters as shown in your screenshot (/C "{action_path}") However, I wonder if there are more parameters that I can use in other contexts. The help file for FC explains /C as a Command line paramet...

Hi I am using Listary 6 (Beta), and it has a direct control to integrate with FC. (Options > Features > Integration >Freecommander). Once we select that option, the screen only shows two checkboxes, and no further control. We are supposed to place a tick in them, and that's it. This option is meant ...

Hi I would like FC to carry out proximity search (finding files where two words or phrases are within n words of each other.) Where n is a user-specified search parameter. Can anyone help me with this (possibly with RegEx)? Please also suggest how to do proximity search if the order of the words/phr...

Currently the definition of a "favorite" contains only one tab, or two tabs in opposing panes.
But often we need to remember (and reload) all the tabs in one panel only.

This facility should be provided (add all tabs in the active panel as a single favorite).

Yes, I was already a VLC user.
So now FC uses the VLC-based interface, which IMO has many more controls as compared to the default interface.

Thanks for your inputs and guidance!

Your Detect strings should not contain Multimedia as I said. That are just a default entries. I conducted some more experiments, and here are the results: 1. The settings in Multimedia tab also matter. There is a section called Media in it. It has a drop-down menu called "Media". Its defa...

Multimedia should not be in your Detect strings . Don't use the *.uwlx files, try the wlx from my archive. Need some clarity on this: The keywords "multimedia&" and "multimedia" were there by default in sLister and mmedia respectively. I did not add this keyword. So should I...

But I found that I have mmedia plugin in FC. Yes, of course! :D In fact, I came to know about mmedia thanks to your screenshot only! I have used the k-lite codec mega pack for years, and I use the "install everything" option. I also keep it updated. So I am surprised that the mmedia plugi...

I never used the mmedia plugin. In older Total Commander there was support from TC itself using the Windows media player. I the current TC version there is an excellent media player which uses LAV codecs to play almost anything. Oh ok. I was hoping that this plugin gives us more controls. (The defa...

I mean the buttons above your QV windows. The 2nd button from the right changes to plugin view or the used plugin. I do not see a toolbar just above the QV header. (bug?) I checked the settings for Viewer, but AFAIK there is no control to switch the toolbar off/on. How do you activate that toolbar?...

That's great news!

How soon would that appear in the public version?
