Try to use one of the dark Color schemes.

I tested it with default settings but its still applying the filter across tabs.
It only works as expected if I switch off "Keep filter on folder change"
but this is not usefull at all.

No, thats a useless effort.
Whats the problem of customizing FC.
You can also simply add TCs lister and archiver plugins to FC.
Nevertheless FC can't beat TC (I run both of it).

Confirmed, there is a problem.
Unselecting "Keep filter on tab change" isn't working.
The filter is still applied to any other tab whatever they have as path.

Yes, FC itself does support file names longer than 259.
Tested with 7z archives with names longer than 300 chars on my system.

This works fine for me in the actual FC version.

Confirmed

Thanks Clicking on synchronise to do a comparison is scary, I wouldn’t know what that would do, it could have messed up my folders, I don’t want them synchronised.

It happens in any program which uses Windows tab control. All is fine if only one row of tabs with a ...

I am using the FreeCommander XE 2022 Build 861 32-bit public. What do you mean by converters? Converters are tools to extract content from non-text formats to text which is used by FC search. I earlier FC versions this was the only way to search in Office, PDF and other formats. Unfortunately I see...

Are you using the x64 donor version ?
As far as I remember the searches will not work in the 32bit public version
without using converters.

What do you mean with "Indexing issue" ? There is no indexing inside of FC and it doesn't use the Windows index. Search for content works fine even without any converter in the actual FC version. I tested *.* for Fie name: and various strings in Containing text: and found the strings searc...

Try to start FC with fresh settings and see what happens,
