680 - Crash While Adding Program to Favorite Tools

[namalone]

Version 680 Donor, Windows XP sp3

If I have FreeCommander (FC) running for a while and try to browse for a program to add to Favorite Tools, the program crashes. Once I restart FC I can browse for the program, and it works perfectly. Once the program is actually added, it works fine also. I don't know what I used FC for prior to the crashes, as I use it so often. Just regular functions mostly such as opening tabs from the Favorites Tree, and then opening, moving and copying files, etc. I have experienced it on 2 computers, both running Windows XP, sp3.

If I use Send To from the file context menu to copy a file to a USB Thumb Drive from within FC, it copies fine, but I get the following pop up message -

The Target cannot handle this type of document.

Doing the same thing from Windows Explorer does not result in an error message. I have Delete, Copy and Move all set to be done by FC not Windows. Just a minor thing.

Thank you.

Can't confirm this on my win7x64sp1 machine. Both x86 and x64 680 build (default settings) behave normal.

If you have crash report, you could send it to me.

I just tried it again on this laptop and FC locked up. I tried to attach the bug reports from both computers. I think #1 was created during this type of operation. I could not attach them as txt, zip or pdf files. I believe FC offers to send these reports when a crash happens, but I use AOL so it does not work.

If you can not send report from program then check your install folder for bugreport.txt.
Maybe you must start freecommander from writeable folder.
