FreeCommander XE 2026 Build 948 64-bit

Before testing this issue, first enable dark theme.

In the Tab Properties dialog box, when clicking on the "A" icon adjacent to the "Text" item, a popup appears. In that popup, when hovering over the "Default" area or the "More colours..." / "More colors ...

FC 946 Donor on Win11

I noticed FC is writing to this file every time it is launched, even if nothing in is being modified:

FreeCommander.cloud.ini

Also, I noticed FreeCommander.cloud.ini contains strings that should likely be in the i18n files instead of that ini file.

I further noticed FC is ...

I performed some additional investigation into this issue, and I'm thinking it could possibly be a CopyQ issue. As such, I'm interested in hearing if anyone can reproduce this issue with or without CopyQ, and with or without other clipboard managers.

As I can't reliably reproduce this issue, this isn't going to be the best bug report, but I hope it is more useful than not reporting the issue at all.

Often, when I completely close FreeCommander (FreeCommander XE 2026 Build 945 64-bit non public on Windows 11), it will copy content to the ...

Is there any reason to use fcZip when fc7Zip is available?
fc7Zip is only in the 64 bit version


Thanks. For the 64-bit version, is there any reason for the user to prefer either fcZip or fc7Zip?

In which part of the UI do you press Ctrl+PgDn?
Select any file you suppose it is archive file ...

fcZip can only process archive files that are compatible with the ZIP format. These files can have various extensions, e.g. zip, jar, war, ear, epub, docx, xlsx and many others.

fc7Zip can handle multiple formats. The most common formats for extraction are: 7z, ZIP, RAR, GZIP, BZIP2, TAR and ISO ...

For which archive types are the FreeCommander's included internal archiver plugins known to be reliable?

I ask because I was trying to open a tarball, and the fcZip plugin incorrectly reported that the tarball was invalid. So I switched to fc7Zip for tarballs, and so far, it seems to be working ...

If it helps, I just noticed the FreeCommander forums currently have: "809 users online :: 4 registered, 0 hidden and 805 guests".

That seems like a large number of non-registered guests. Could that be bogging down the server?

Any progress on this one? When I want to move files to compressed folders, I keep having to copy them, and then manually delete the original.

Not sure what's up, but the donor download server is currently incredibly slow (12kb/s). I think the issue may be affecting everything on freecommander.com, as the main site is slow too.

Maybe time to reboot a server or something?

I already found the solution for the next release.

Thanks! Looking forward to it.

There is a recent regression, most likely new in FCXE v935 64-bit donor, that causes address bar icons to be displayed several pixels too low. The bottom of each icon is now cut off, and address bar icons no longer align vertically with the folder name displayed in each address bar.

Here are some ...

you might want to use the solution Marek wrote, this way you get the update and don't have to fight with microsoft.


Thanks. First, please let me apologize for asking for the KB #. You clearly wrote it in your original message, but I didn't recall reading it. It appears my mind was partially ...

Do you know which update (KB #)?
