If you are using FreeCommander XE, please copy and paste the following code into a text editor and save it as "replace-with-freecommander.reg". Then double click the file to open it and follow the instructions to add to your registry. Now all folders should open with FreeCommander XE. (Note: I had to add the (x86) to get the correct path to FreeCommander XE in Windows 10 64-bit. If you have Windows 32-bit then remove "(x86)" from the last line.)

Similar to that previous solution [https://freecommander.com/forum/viewtop ... f=2&t=6817]

sometimes folder is opened via Windows Explorer [sometimes with dozens of second of delay], sometimes a drive is opened in FreeCommander

So if I was not using uTorrent, this would work form me. But because only via the uTorrent do I open folders not-from-FreeCcommander, these issue is still unresolved for me

This also has messed up my Windows 7 options for settings: FC tries now to run things like "Screen Resolution" or "Personalize"

This didn't seem to work for me. For some reason, it looks like the changes didn't even apply. Did someone else run into the same problem?PastorDan wrote: ↑19.12.2016, 03:16If you are using FreeCommander XE, please copy and paste the following code into a text editor and save it as "replace-with-freecommander.reg".
