Folder panel keeps updating/blinking

#1 Post by wonger33 » 15.08.2019, 23:06

I'm using FreeCommander XE 2019 build 790a 32-bit public on Windows 7 and the folder tree panel is constantly blinking like it is updating. When it does this, CPU usage is 9-10%. It will sometimes stop for a second or two, and CPU usage goes down, but it will always go back to blinking. In the View/Tree/Management tab settings, I tried turning off "Follow location changes" and "Make selected node automatically visible", but that doesn't help. Is this happening for anybody else?

Maybe some drive generates so many change events that the tree is constantly updating.
You could try exclude some items from the tree and check if something changes.

I had this very issue, which could be caused by this setting. I know for me this was the cause.

Marek, shall I create a new bug for this? I'm using the latest build. Build 932 64-bit donor
