Is there a way to replace windows explorer with Freecommander also in the context menus?

I think FC normally has no context menu entries, they are all from windows explorer listed for filetypes in registry.

Quick access is the topmost area in the foldertree of the windows explorer, not FreeCommander.

In FreeCommander you can use the favorites, tabs or folderlinks in favorite tool toolbar.

Hello Robert, You can use your "Favorite tools toolbar" for placing folder-favorites or program-favorites and much more on this toolbar.

In FCXE 827 the freecommander.ini-entry "FcIconNr=2" (orange FC-icon) doesn't work anymore. FC-icon in taskbar is allways the blue one.

Do you start FC with admin rights?

Not what you asked but an easier way to make a list of the filenames: Select all files your want use Menu "Edit" >>> "Copy to clipboard" >>> "Copy full name as text (Alt + Ins)" or use "Alt + Ins" or use the "copy to clipboard button" on the right side of the "Address bar-actions toolbar" https://fr...

You can use the Favorite tools toolbar for buttons to folders, programs, files, ...
If the folder has a specific icon it is shown, if not, you can give the button an icon you like.

Thanks also for the Tip to use windows attributes instead of FC attributes.

Additional Attribute:
I copied a big file to the local OneDrive-folder.
First there was only the Attribute A
After a while (synchronisation) Attributes show AL.

So maybe L is for synchronized.

Old Topic, but for working with Microsoft OneDrive in Coronatimes it's really necessary to show the icon for the sync status of files and folders. There are 2 available columns called "Status" but the first doesn't show an entry and the other shows a text with hundreds of characters like "C600000031...

Yes, I can confirm, the quick filter box in main window and in search window have different behaviour. The Operator NOT \~ is working in quick filter box in main window but not in quick filter box in search window. But I don't know if it worked in older version. The Help for quick filter box in main...

Where did you type "\~a" ?
The search window has an own Filter tab.

I asked about the Favorites TOOLBAR not Favorites tree, different things. You're right, I pointed to the wrong function. The button for Favorites Toolbar can be found in Tools > Favorite tools (where also Define action toolbar is located) It has been described as well in FC-help. https://freecomman...

It is in menu at View > Favorites Tree (ALT F).
