Drive letters are no longer sorted in the drivebar (V 650 was the last one to show a correct order).
Actually the drives are always sorted according to their volume name but this is not what one expects when the drive letters are displayed.
Example : the bar displays
R V X W Y D E C
because the ...

" 123" and "123" are seen as identical by windows. This is why you can't simply delete a space at the beginning. Maybe FC should not allow names starting with a space character, as Explorer.

If you want to get rid of a leading space you can do it in two rename steps. First replace the space by any ...

Thanks a lot.

I looked at the drag&drop settings but I could not imagine that this 'blocking mode" was responsible for the icon :!

You were right to move the topic to the discussion, my mistake.

Please, please, please avoid the BIG ICON that moves with the cursor when dragging !!!!!

This horrible and obfuscating feature of Win Explorer was absent, fortunately, in FreeCommander. But now it's present in FC too :evil:
If some people like the feature make it optional
and please give us the ...

High CPU usage found here too
W7 64 quadcore : 25% full core
XP 32 single core : 85 %
No obvious reason : everything idle

Confirm the tree trick to - momentarily - get back to normal <1% usage

It's not exactly the same problem, Scoyy_Y, but yes it is related to the behaviour of the tree autoexpansion when drag-dropping onto it.
There are actually 3 misbehaviours
- the one above : auto expansion takes place only once. If you collapse an expanded folder then it will not autoexpand the next ...

Sorry Marek but in 601 the bug is still there ...

May be the followings might help you.

On 64b sytems the 32b apps can access files in System32 through a shortcut
provided the target path is rewritten as
c:\windows\sysnative\a64exe
Sysnative is recognized by 32b apps, like FCXE, as the true System32, not redirected
to Syswow64.

Unfortunately ...

I've tried again.

-Open a QuickView
-Open the settings from the QuickView title right click
-delete .avi in the media extension list.

-look at general settings Viewer, .avi has been deleted as expected
-look at Viewer settings from Viewer menu, .avi has been deleted as expected

Shutdown FCXE ...

I have set viewer settings to be identical for View and Quickview

HOWEVER

Plugins and other settings that are set in the general Options/Settings/View/Viewer
are not saved - they do not survive a restart. In fact they are not applied to any of the Viewer and Quickviewer.

Plugins and other ...

Want to move a file to some folder.
Drag the file and move to the folder in the tree.
The folder tree expands automatically after a small delay.
Do what you want with the dragged file
Everything works correctly till now.

Collapse the just expanded folder.

Now on you will never get the folder auto ...

What does not work on my Win7 x64 is the right click context menu. Some menus are present, others not, like 7zip or iZarc. It's not a critical bug, just annoying. Note that iZarc is a 32 bits application.

1) I have the same problem W7-64b. Apparently the context menu item that do not ...

Yes, the possibility to ignore a fixed difference of 2 seconds is already in.
I was suggesting a customizable "xxxx" difference.
Or 2 possibilities the present 2 secs and another 1 hour for daylight saving.
Sorry I was not clear !

PoP

For file/folder comparison
Would it be possible to ignore date differences smaller than
xxxx seconds ?
This would make things nicer when comparing FAT and NTFS
folders because of the 2 second uncertainty on FAT records
and the different ways the summer time is taken into account.

Superb product ...

Hi,
I have the same problem with toolbars not staying at the position where I set them.
This is independent of the choice of locked or not locked.

I want, and I can set the toolbars as below :
All visible toolbars on the same row

ToolBar0Top=2
ToolBar1Top=2
ToolBar2Top=2
ToolBar4Top=2
ToolBar8Top ...
