Freecommander very slow

Hi, I have been using FreeCommander for a long time now, but the last 2 or 3 years it is getting slower and slower. Just a right click to see "properties" may take like 5 seconds, or more... It's not for everything, but many things. I used to have a donor version way back, but updated and ...

Folder compare does not find dfferences.

Hi, I have used compare/synchronize quite often with success for many years, but now it appears to not work any more. I am comparing a folder on C drive with a folder on a usb SSD, 549 files each folder. There are about 10 files that are not the same, different content, even though they have the sam...

Long time for program to start (win10)

Hi,

I love FreeCommander and have been using it for many years.

For me however, the program can take 10 to 30 seconds before it starts on win10.
Is there some kind of tweak to make it start quicker, like other programs?

I am using 2016 64-bit donor version.

Re: thumbnails for rtf files

thumbnails for rtf files

Hi, I've been trying without success to get proper thumbnails for rtf files in FreeCommander. It doesn't seem possible in windows file explorer, on windows 7 or 10. In FreeCommander, I got somewhat of a result by adding "rtf" to "Settings/View/Thumbnails/Make thumbnails for text files...

Wrong folder sizes

Hi,

I've notice this before and again just now.
Sometimes the folder size displayed is wrong.
It is displaying the size of the folder right above it.

FreeCommander XE 2016 Build 716 64-bit donor in Windows 10

Any ideas how to fix this or is it a known bug?

That's good.
I just had my first use for it and it worked. I just used it the once, though.

Re: How to start quick search?

The first one however, is almost exactly the same as it lists only files fulfilling the criteria. Right-click/properties shows the path. You don't need to open Properties to show path, open the “Settings (F12) → View → Column profiles” and create new profile, click the button “Condition” and select...

Re: How to start quick search?

You're welcome. Explorer's "quick search" works the same as FC's "quick search". Explorer's Search you're talking about is something between classic Search (Ctrl+F) and Quick search. There are two ways how to achieve something similar... 1. - Ctrl+F - type text - Enter - Ctrl+E ...

Re: How to start quick search?

Just start typing to start quick search, for example, "fre" in FreeCommander install folder. That's it! Thanks Dreamer. It is simple, but not indicated anywhere that I could find. However, it doesn't work exactly like the Windows explorer search function. Filter is also different. It does...

Re: How to start quick search?

I changed the title of my topic. Sorry, my bad.
I had written "quick filter" instead of "quick search".

Re: How to start quick filter?

http://www.freecommander.com/fchelpxe/en/Quicksearchfilterstarter.html Yes, I saw that. It doesn't answer my question, though. There is something that I am not seeing or understanding. Maybe it's obvious, but I just don't see it. Is there a box for quick search? I haven't seen one. Is it the same b...

How to start quick search?

Hi, After years of using FC and going back to explorer to do a search, I would like learn how to do a Quick Search directly in FC. :oops: So how do I start "Quick Search"? Where is it? :? Believe or not, I haven't been able to find this in the documentation or from an online search. I am m...

Re: How to update

OK, thanks to both of you for your replies.

I will likely make another donation eventually
as I am using the program more and more.

Hi,

I received an update notice on oct 22nd but have not downloaded it yet.
Now hoever, on my account page, there is no download link for this new version (release 730) which I would like to install.

How or where do I find a link to download this update?

Sincerely,
Dan
