FreeCommander Forum

@Zorkoff it really solves the problem on my machine ( as far as I can remember I never messed around with these Windows7 settings)

seems to be a fairly old issue. perhaps you might also read this. short thread - same problem: http://forum.freecommander.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8433 long thread - same/similar problems: http://forum.freecommander.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8338#p26720 nobody else seemed to have that problem - so I ju...

you are correct concerning .pdf BUT 1) I didn't find a directory with 20 .pdf-files 2) so I used Plain View 3) quick filtered for .pdf 4) selected .pdf files from different folders (obviously) 5) I found that FCXE can't even handle two .pdf-files from different folders 6) I found that FCXE can handl...

I can more or less confirm all your findings

and I found that .pdf-files are most problematic.
if I select one .pdf erverything ok.
if I select two or more .pdf problems keep showing up.

there is a good chance for recovering your lost data because by default FreeCommander makes backups in your settings folder.

find the FreeCommander settings folder by clicking: Help - About
then
click Tools --> Restore all settings...

you can also customize the Standard toolbar and add an icon to toggle

My favorite toolbar disappeared.

confirmed - but I somehow managed to find my favorite toolbar again. I can't remember exactly but I guess I fooled around with this setting and it helped.

watch the width of the "Quick filter edit field" carefully and compare the width with the file times. 1) Quick filter bar always visible is ticked here (I think Quick filter field is too small - it's definitely not 100 px) https://i.imgur.com/JOpUc1H.png 2) Quick filter bar always visible is UNticke...

the width of the Quick filter field is not consistent.

1) close FreeCommander XE
2) there should be the file Total7zip.xml in FreeCommander install directory
3) open it with notepad and find alwaysWait7zip="0"
4) change the setting to alwaysWait7zip="1" and save the file
5) everything should be ok. now

• Please consider making it possible to rename files and folders recursively (to be applied to sub-folders). This would greatly enhance the rename capability, and make it more useful.

this can easily be achieved by switching to Plain view (Ctrl+B) first and then starting Multi rename

1) select two or more files (e.g. .docx-files)
2) hit enter
3) files are opened correctly, but FCXE 794 crashes

same here
+1 for your request

cannot confirm on Win7x64pro and FCXE 790x64.

opened Internal Viewer via F3 on a regular .txt-file and pressed Esc to close quickly and I repeated it for at least ten times --> everything went smoothly, no crash.
