Character "&" not displayed properly in the Favorites Items

#1 Post by TranceVibes » 24.10.2020, 06:49

Hi,

I am reporting the following issue:
  • When adding a folder with the "&" character into the favorites, the "&" character is not displayed properly.
Steps:
  • Create a folder with the "&" character, e.g. "Abc&Abc".
  • Add it to the favorites. You will see in the favorites, the "&" character is missing. It shows "AbcAbc" instead of "Abc&Abc".
  • The issue also happens if you rename a favorite shortcut (via "Favorites - edit..." in the menu) and add a "&" character.

Note:
  • My version is FreeCommanderXE-64-donor_portable831.zip on Windows 8.1.
  • I am using the portable version and tried these command line parameters for default settings. The same behavior happened.

    Code: Select all

    /N /NewIni=%FcSrcPath%\TestSettings\FreeCommander.ini /NoPlugins /Lng=English
Thank you for your kind attention!

If you want to see the & char in menu use &&.
In your case rename your favorite item (not the folder) to Abc&&Abc.
