to reproduce, change window and size to something you like.
1. after maximize then restore, window size and position is correct. (ok)
2. now maximize then close FC, after restart, click to restore window size and position.
bang! previous window size and position is incorrect.

to reproduce, restore FC window (make sure it's not maximized) then deselect "minimize to system tray" and select "start minimized" in settings. save settings, close FC and restart.

from my point of view a better solution would be to keep the QF at the same height and "wrap" the status bar text around it:

there is an outdated portable version [v 2009] afaik there is no portable XE version yet.

I meant favorite toolbars. after assigning local icons for all UNC folders, the start time went down to 1-2 sec. THANKS A LOT!!! what a relief!

this "trick" should be mentioned somewhere in the FAQ! thanks again!

I've created a video showing the start without favorites (4 sec.) and with favorites leading to a delayed start of 4.30 min:

thanks, I somehow missed that setting.

in my opinion, a better way is to apply an unique quick filter to each tab, therefore each tab would filter individually.

i guess a radio button instead of the check box is more appropriate.

to reproduce define some favorite folders like \\yourNAS or \\YourOfflineComputer\SharedFolder then if these Computers are offline, or if your Network e.g. NAS is slow or off-line; FC start takes minutes! (FC is Not Responding) because of "reading" the favorites folders. The same happens w...

even in the new XE version copying big files is a pain, as FC UI becomes pretty sluggish.
Support incl. documentation for third party copy functions (teracopy, nicecopier...) is still very appreciated.

in case you need 64 today, ask for the pascal source code, do some changes and compile it yourself using this compiler: http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/ many cool apps were written in delphi, but for years embarcarcadero seems incapable to roll out a 64 bit version. maybe in the next version Delph...
