Re: any selected item flashes until reboot

For years [...] But on Windows 10 that is? That you very much for your reply, Forez! Hmm, I've been on Win10 just 17 months. Two years ago I was on 8.1 on a motherboard that died; I can't recall if it had this issue. See video: https://file.io/1H1D23EyLbbc Can not because " The transfer you re...

any selected item flashes until reboot

For years, sometimes any selected item in my left pane flashes. See video: https://file.io/1H1D23EyLbbc IIRC it causes some kind of functional issues; it only stops if I close and re-open the program. FreeCommander XE 2022 Build 873 64-bit donor on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit 21H2. I've shared the setting...

Re: Startup shortcut launches old version of FC

It was my mistake. The shortcut was launching the 64-bit version I had installed. It was just that I tried to 'update' it using a 32-bit version instead. I have to train myself to pick the 64-bit version to update!

Re: switching to 64-bit version

Thank you very much for your great reply, Dreamer! I apologize for not finding that in the FAQ (that's impressively documented!). I think I can now feel comfortable saving a copy of the /settings/ folder elsewhere, doing a thorough uninstall of FC 32-bit, then installing FC 64-bit. Edit: Wow, that w...

switching to 64-bit version

I've been using the 32-bit version (FreeCommander XE 2021 Build 850 32-bit donor) by mistake. When I switch to the 64-bit version will my customizations automatically persist? (Providing I guess that I don't uninstall the 32-bit version first.) (As it happens, I listed those customizations in https:...

Startup shortcut launches old version of FC

I've used FC for years, but I'm on Windows 10 (Pro 64-bit) for the first time. I'm surprised to find that when I update FC, on reboot it's Startup shortcut launches the first version I installed (until I replace it each time with a current shortcut to "C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\Fr...

'File Explorer'-type settings

I came to FC for a different reason than many. I like the 'File Explorer' format, but couldn't live without a column that shows the size of folders. In case someone who feels the same way comes along, here are the settings I use to do this (and to do some other stuff I like): F10 (one panel) Ctrl-F2...

803 d/l link delivers 802 again

The download link for 803 delivers FreeCommanderXE-32-donor_setup802.zip again.

I guess maybe it's a new/different 802, but plainly that would be confusing.

Aaaaa! Yes, that works perfectly. (Thank goodness I have a numeric keypad.)

Re: How can I expand (collapse) all of the folders in the tree v

Select one node in the tree and than press +(Num) or x(Num) Thank you very much for your reply, Karol! I think that is exactly what I have done. But I'd be very grateful for a little clarification because I'm not sure I completely understand anything about your instructions: 1. "+(Num)" D...

Re: How can I expand (collapse) all of the folders in the tr

Expand one level: + (Num) Expand all: x (Num) You can define shortcut for the action "Tree -collapse all". I can't get those commands + (Num) x (Num) to do anything for me. The "Tree-collapse all" shortcut I assigned will collapse, but that would only help me if I could expand. ...

There is a new version 790a, it's a kind of silent update, check the date, just download the latest version - 790 again, you will see the real version (790a) in program menu > Help > About...

Re: FC hangs on delete/recycle

I can't reproduce it in 790a, perhaps provide more info, is it a local HDD, SSD, network, FTP, smartphone, desktop item? (And I was confused this morning when FC on both my PCs showed an Update popup, but when I went to donors page (link removed) I saw there was no new version.) There is a new vers...
