Re: Windows 11 - New "Text Document" item is missing in "New" Context menu

Did you mean to post images? None show for me, nor is there an active URL link.

Just the word "image", in both places where you clearly intended to provide screenshots.

854: Opening title bar does not show release and folder

Image

But if you now select any other folder, sure enough the [Release]: folder populates properly.

Re: 849: UseOutdatedBmps=1 doesn't seem to work

Every now and then I find it appropriate (and necessary) to create a brand new INI from scratch, re-customizing FCXE fully but starting from a "default" state. This gets rid of any inconsistencies or anomalies or irregularities in performance or behavior. And it always is successful in bri...

Re: 849: "Open with FreeCommander" on [..] for new tab no longer works

Ok. CASE CLOSED. User error. Turns out the instructions I was following left off two CRITICAL items in the dialog, which also needed to be checked but had not been mentioned: (1) "ALWAYS OPEN IN NEW TAB" MUST BE CHECKED. This is actually the crucial option, which had unwittingly been left ...

Re: 849: "Open with FreeCommander" on [..] for new tab no longer works

Well, something is strange. I wanted to go to a second machine to re-record that short video. For some reason it is not playing with audio/video in Firefox or Edge on the machine it was recorded on. However if I download the video and can play it with a media player program, and there is perfect aud...

849: "Open with FreeCommander" on [..] for new tab no longer works

This is a new breakage, most likely due to whatever got partially (but not completely) fixed in 849 for the broken "loss of tree" when opening the first new tab. It used to be that if you followed these instructions: in settings - shell menu check the options: "Folders", "Al...

849: Fix for "tree visibility broken" only 1/2 fixed

The 849 fix to correct the "broken tree when opening first new tab" only works when "always keep one tab open" IS NOT CHECKED. However if "always keep one tab open" IS CHECKED, then the first new tab still loses the tree. I've made two short screen-capture videos to dem...

Re: 849: UseOutdatedBmps=1 doesn't seem to work

It's not a bug, I updated the posts with more info. Using of the old icons is possible after adding in the [Icons] section of the freecommander.ini: UseOutdatedBmps=1 After changing this ini option, open FC, Settings (F12) > View > Icon sets > Use icons set: > select the option "Outdated bitma...

Re: 849: UseOutdatedBmps=1 doesn't seem to work

I should have mentioned that the above situation is Win7 Pro x64. I will give it a try in Win10 21H1 now, to see if it works there. Here is the Win10 INI (looks the same as Win7): https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1024x768q90/922/RZ9QA0.jpg And once again, the buttons are still "flat", no...

849: UseOutdatedBmps=1 doesn't seem to work

Have I done something incorrect, or is this not actually working, or what? I added "UseOutdatedBmps=1" to the [Icons] section of the INI file: https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1024x768q90/923/ElyMtQ.jpg But the action bar buttons are still "flat". https://imagizer.imageshack.co...

Re: 848: First "new folder tab" (when none currently exists) LOSES TREE!!

On the possibility that my INI file has gotten corrupted, I deleted all of the SETTINGS files and started from scratch with 848. Re-customized from scratch, duplicating all of my previous changes. I did decide to make my Standard Action Bar buttons larger (not "large", but size 26) so that...

Re: 848: First "new folder tab" (when none currently exists) LOSES TREE!!

Is this yet another bug in "tab" processing in 848? A while back I had requested that right-click on Address Bar should show "new folder tab" right at the top of the context popup menu. One of the alternatives methods proposed by others in lieu of having "new folder tab"...

Re: 845 Cannot search through mobile phone

I cannot report this same problem. I've had Samsung Galaxy Android phones ever since the S4, including S7, S10, and now S21 Ultra. I've accessed them through USB cables within FCXE "almost problem-free" forever using both Win7 and Win10. Of course it goes without saying that the USB cord m...

Re: 848: First "new folder tab" (when none currently exists) LOSES TREE!!

Well, it turns out the "lost TREE pane" bug is even more exotic and intricate to describe than I originally thought. (1) Turns out that if you set "Always keep one tab open" so that there is always an initial tab showing for the upper or lower panel, well now CTRL+T will ALWAYS L...

Re: 848: First "new folder tab" (when none currently exists) LOSES TREE!!

I did a bit more experimenting. I modified Settings -> View -> Folder tabs -> Tab Management, and checked "always keep one tab open". So now when I launch FCXE there is always one tab presented above the address bar. And TREE pane is also shown. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/6669/...
