FreeCommander Forum

I am using FreeCommander XE 2015 Build 685 32-bit public on a variety of computers, Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8.1 and 10. I switched to it from Powerdesk due to long freezes where it was not responding. This is happening more and more often with FC. I use FC for copying and moving (not Windows). It happ...

Sorry, it did not work for me in Windows Live Mail (Vista 64 bit laptop). It did open my email client but did not create a new email nor did it attach the item I had clicked on in FC. Thanks for trying. :cry: Toolbar button or/and keyboard shortcut would be nice, currently it's missing. I found a wo...

Is there a keyboard short cut or a way to put this command as a button on a toolbar? I cannot find a menu for sending as email, just a right click menu. Right now there are 3-4 steps: Right click click on Send to click on Mail recipient (then click on taskbar to complete the email) (OK I'm lazy but ...

Thanks that worked for me

Is there a way to have c: expanded when I open FC? When I open it now I have all the drives listed on the left side of each tree. I would like c: to be expanded to show all folders in the left side of each tree.

I worked it out in Windows 7 "personalizing" the "selected" item. NO problem now.

I have my Windows 7 (64 bit) computer personalized back to Windows Classic colors as I cannot see the text in the taskbar tabs in windows 7 colors. (I need black text not white) Since I changed that, I am having trouble with the colors in FC XE in the tree column (I have dual views of the tree colum...

So I would have to enter the email address every time? (Just setting up the sendtovb and the path to windows live mail just flashes. ) If so, that is a lot of work - or am I missing something? all I want to do is click on a file and be able to email it to someone.

TIA

Windows Live Mail on Vista 32 bit and Windows 7 64 bit Powerdesk has had file>email to with an icon since at least version 6 (which I am trying to replace with your program, quite successfully) but I am not familiar with programming and don't know how it works. It does not ask for the email program ...

I would like an icon I can add to a toolbar that would bring up a "mail to" dialog for the selected file(s). Presently I right click the file, left click Send to, left click "mail recipient."

No problem this time - Just want to thank you for all the replies and help. I am loving many things about your program while getting used to the small differences from what I have used for a decade (Powerdesk).

I had tried to rename them but used the name v:\ which still was invisible. Using your sample (thank you for that) without symbols did the trick. This saves me a lot of trouble. I do move data from folder to folder to network many times a day.

I move files from a catch-all folder to specific folders on a regular basis. I love being able to designate the often-used folders as favorites. But I also often copy to a shared network folder on another computer which is called drive v:\ If I try to make it a favorite, it shows up as a blank space...

By the way, using the hammer to configure autosize worked sometimes and reverted others. I edited the autosize to 0 in the ini and it seems to work better. I also changed the size as you suggested. So far so good. A work in progress

Thanks again for your help. Yes I am using 64 bit Windows 7 on the computer I wrote about. What works is left Window key with right click. And it is easy to remember in this elderly brain! My ini file does not have a line ShowContectMenu64Bit=0 or =1 and doesn't seem to help if I add that to the ini...
