Can someone help me, what does the setting Full Row Select actually do? I have it checked and unchecked and it doesn't seem to change anything.

If you have the option in the Settings dialog - it means you use old program version.
This option was removed some time ago.

Thanks Marek for your response. FC XE 2024 Build 905 64-bit donor says I'm up to date and I still have that setting. I'm even more confused now.

Could you send me the screenshot with the setting?

It's in Settings - View - Tree - General, so it's just for the Tree and it looks, it's not working good, whole row is selected, but it's possible to click it only within the item name.

Hello Marek, any update on this?

This option works fine, it is for the tree - I thought you meant the option for file list.
- active option - inactive option

Thank you!

The option is still available according to the help file (in the screenshot as well as in the text). This should probably be synced.

Why was this option removed?

I like to use the feature in FC that lets me double-click the white area in the file-list to navigate to the parent directory.
With no option to disable Full-row select you end up always clicking on a file because the row occupies all the white area.

I found another thread here: viewtopic.php?t=13464
