Hi - sorry I know this must have been answered somewhere but I can't find it. Can someone pls point me in the right direction?

I'm trying to set a tab with "This PC" as the Locked Path.
When I select "This PC" in Tab Properties > Locked Path, FC displays: ::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D ...

thanks again, alf. Perfect!

Thank you alf. That's certainly a viable fallback if FC's unable to do what I want - I can always retore to the locked path. The program is quite extensible, so i figured it was worth an ask.

Hi, and Happy New Year!
Instead of persistently showing certain tab (folder) icons in the Tab Bar, I'd like to add something like a favorite tool (icon) in a toolbar that, when clicking on it, either:
> displays a popup menu similar to the functionality already available when viewing the desktop ...

Thank you again Dreamer. I'll give it a try and see how it compares to the current workaround.

Thank you Dreamer.

I see you've posted the same response in a feature enhancement request I submitted, which I appreciate.

I have trouble with quick search, as it tends to "stick" and apply the same search criteria to every other tab in the panel. If I modify the quick search - i.e., in another ...

Thank you (again) Marek. Very helpful as always!
I didn't know there was a portable version, and will certainly add this to my utility USB.

Best regards,

Hello
I'd like to move to Donor from Public, and ensure my current configuration (e.g., layouts, settings, color schemes, etc.) are retained. Can someone please refer me to a link(s) that walks through this process?

Some questions which come to mind (if they're not covered in the links):

I know I can define a Search, save it as a Profile, and/or display output as links in a Container tab, but those links immediately becomes "stale", and aren't updated when underlying files / folders are modified. In other words, I'm looking for a visible "live" Search that's automatically updated on ...

:idea: I'm finding {Ctrl}+B (to view a flat list of files in a folder & subfolders) immensely useful. Maybe there's a way to do this, and I just haven't found it, but when looking inside a large folder structure, it would be helpful to see the file's full path. This might be displayed either as an ...

Thanks for the hints / links, Dreamer. I know I'm still scratching the surface, but am impressed at the depth of features within FC.

Some of the "not so obvious" settings are interesting, but I'll need to bookmark this for a time when I'm more familiar with the app.

It turns out that Quick search ...

Thanks again, @Dreamer. Your suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I've read through the very helpful (but slightly outdated) documentation for Quick search. FYI, in my instance (Build 880) it seems even the first level subfolder isn't filtered when using Quick search.

I did implement your ...

Thank you @Dreamer.
My first attempt wasn't successful. I'll post here again once I've had a chance to review the Quick search documentation and play around with it a bit.

My actual use-case involves dynamically retrieving files matching multiple extensions (ps1; bat; vbs) in two discreet folders ...

Hi. I'm new to FC and would first like to thank Marek, the Admins, and everyone else who helped make this happen. The app is more useful than I'd imagined, and I intend to purchase a 64 bit license.

FC's feature-set is so rich, it's tweaked my imagination, and I'm now wondering it's possible to ...
