Windows 7

[paulgul]

Is anyone using fc with windows 7?. I've installed the latest version a couple of times and after installation either fc just hangs or it causes windows explorer to hang and then unable to start any other programs. Un-installing fc cures the problem
edit- thats 32bit win 7

Hi, I've been using FC with win7 for the last couple of days. My pc only hanged when I had another explorer replacement program running, but once I disabled the other one, FC runs without any problems over here.

Should be no problem.
I have it running for several months now under Windows 7 RC
Also since a week now, on an official Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bits and on a Window 7 Home Premium 64bit version.
No problems so far.

I left the UAC "ON" in Windows 7. It really hampers FC performance. I can't copy, move, rename etc. without several popup screens from UAC. In some instances (renames, deleting some folders, etc.) it refuses permission entirely - can't do it! However - and this irks - Windows Explorer can do all these things without a hitch. !!!??

I also have UAC ON (slider in mid postition) and have no problems.
Al the messages i get, i also get from Explorer.
The only moment i get slow performance is with UNC path, but that has nothing to do with Windows 7

Sorry, i think i can't help

Why does windows 7 stop downloading when the screen is closed? I've recently bought a windows 7 laptop. I wanted to download a game that takes a long time to download. I would close the laptop. It's still on, but the download stop. How can I make it download while it's closed?

Hello, this has nothing to do with FreeCommander.
But i would think it has to do with the option in Windows7 (and XP/Vista) about closing the lid/cover of the laptop.
Go to the Energy settings in the Configuration screen.
On the left should be some text like:
Change behaviour when closing the lid of the laptop.

There you can tell it to NOT go to sleep when you close the lid ('No Action').
