New tabs (^t) often open withOUT keeping Tree View

It's continuing. Weeks ago, I installed on machine A the Free Commander update (849) that was supposed to fix the Tree View problem. It did not, really. Instead, the problem occurred often, but not always (which doesn't make troubleshooting easy). I always use FreeCommander XE 64 bit set to dual pan...

Tree panel NOT follow all location changes in main panel

The problem persists whether making location changes - by clicking on a part of the address bar or when - entering a new location manually using Folder>Go to folder or when - clicking on the history list NB: under Tools>Settings>View>Tree>Management I DO have "Follow location changes in active ...

file focus disappears on tab shift

FreeCommander XE 2015 Build 680 public beta The problem: One of the tabs was behaving oddly: this tab's file selection and display repeatedly reset itself ("automatically") after other tabs were viewed. I had many (~8) tabs open, in the left panel, each viewing its own tree and each focuse...

Re: Favorite Tool Program

My last post was simply WRONG. FreeCommander DOES successfully call up a DOS box for the test bat. It does successfully call up the real bat file. I had ("invisible") bad character-bytes in the parameter line. When I retyped the line, instead of blindly copying a suggestion off the interne...

Favorite Tool Program

What have I overlooked? In FreeCommander XE 2015 Build 680 public beta I have created a Favorite Tool that doesn't work. The tool is supposed to use robo- or Xcopy to copy folder structures. I use a bat file containing "robocopy %1 %2 /e /xf *". I have tested the bat file in a DOS box, usi...

Folder>Filter FreeCommander XE 2015 Build 680 public beta

Win7 x64 I apologize if I am not understanding the logic correctly. This is probably a request for a new feature. I'd love to hear corrections or better work-arounds. I would like to be able to set a temp filter (in the left list) for - all tabs that are sub folders of the tab (A) in which I set the...

Open new text file button not completely functional

The button establishes a new file & pulls up a dialog box for the filename. BUT the dialog box does NOT have an extension field, and the file is saved WITHOUT ANY EXTENSION. Either there should be an extension choice in the dialog (perhaps defaulting to text, as this supposedly creates a text fi...

Allow "Drives Bar" to be moved to tool bar line

Treat the "Drives Bar"/menu like an additional toolbar, and allow it to be moved to the toolbar line, if space is available there. This presumes only 1 drives bar for both panels. The reason is to optimize top to bottom real estate, a particular issue on 16:9 displays. The current system w...

Folder listing under "Libraries\Music" includes other librar

"FreeCommander XE 2014 Build 650, Windows 7 SP1 64-bit" "Libraries\Music" displays both the folders from the library "Music" and those from the library "Documents". WinEx does not do this, & (under Windows) I have connected nothing to the library "Mus...

Make version name & number selectable under Help>About

Currently one has to read the version numbers -- FreeCommander XE 2014 Build 650 is a fingerful for memory & manual typing -- move to a new window, and type them manually into emails or postings. This is an unnecessary invitation to typos, and so to misleading comments that are hard to understan...

Make starting folder/root of Tree display user-selectable

Trees starting with Desktop can be a real-estate problem even on a 16:9 screen, if using both panels & trees for each. A tree starting with C:\ takes up noticeably less space from left to right than a tree starting with Desktop. Starting with Desktop becomes a problem, if you work in user folder...
