Thank you for your reply

Is a donor a periodic subscription ?

New user of FreeCommander :)

I have downloaded FreeCommanderXE-32-public_portable.zip and extracted it onto a folder in C:\ (not an external USB)

How do I apply a theme ?
- I have downloaded FcCs_White_Default.colors.zip but I cannot locate any guides on the FC web-site nor on the net

Thank you ...

3 years later ...
in 2015 I gave up! It all got too complicated
Now Jan2018 I am back again determined to get my head around FC-XE, in a fresh thread

Consider this thread CLOSED

Thank you Karol for your quick response :)

I finally got rid of the very dark-blue coloring for selected items in my Navigation pane. :wink:

How:
Tools -> Settings -> View -> Tree (settings)
Color/Font/Icons (tab)
- there are two sample trees
- by default the very dark blue selection color ...

I am using two pane setup (started today).
- left pane as drives/folders pane
- right pane as folder contents/files pane

Selected drive/folders (in navigation pane) are impossible to read, because font is black on dark blue backcolor

How do I customize these two colors ?
- FC settings are enormous ...

Thanks joby_toss :)

I am trialling FCXE on a 32-bit Win7 laptop -- with a 64-bit rig to be "done" later
- spent hours yesterday (Sunday) playing with FC, a lot to learn for this dinosaur.

Whenever I see 64-bit problems/quirks mentioned anywhere ... I add the "report" to a 64bit stuff folder ...

Thank you joby-toss and alf5000

How do I upload an image ?
- via Dropbox ?
- I am mostly used to uploading images to the web-site
- some sites have some very unique image protocols and they are all different
- what is your preferred method ?

Thank you

There is a dead link on FAQs web page
Can I use FreeCommander on Windows 64 bit?
Yes, but please consider the info on http://freecommander.com/fc_logchanges_en.htm
The link is dead ... "Not found" page (no error 404)
- search for "64bit" on the "Not Found" page ...

On http://freecommander.com/en/downloads-portable/ ...
... what is the difference between
• FreeCommanderPortable_2015_Build_685. paf.exe
-AND-
• FreeCommanderXE-32-public_portable.zip

I am using extracted portable FreeCommanderXE-32-public_portable.zip

Thank you :)

SPECS ...

Default colours on FC-XE GUI make reading selected captions (folders/files) almost impossible ... black on dark-blue
I have found how to change the Address Bar from default dark-blue to yellow but the graduated shading on my laptop still masks the address string.

In my attempt to be self sufficient ...

In a word ... No!

See Microsoft article Change AutoPlay settings (Win7)

If you mean "AutoRun.inf" hidden file on portable drives -- which could be done in XP and Vista ...
- Microsoft have disabled most "keys" in "AutoRun.inf" -- it is too much of a security risk
