"Network map drive B:" error

#1 Post by rozza » 05.08.2014, 04:20

When I map a network share to drive B:, and then browse that share through FreeCommander XE, the folders pane shows an incorrect map list view (see attached JPG image [networkmapbug01] - top address line is correct for the mapped drive, but the folders pane is incorrect : There is NO subfolder tree structure "_Software\_Software\2014" under the "D:\_SOFTWARE\" tree structure! There are only two folders under "D:\_SOFTWARE" and they are "2013" and "2014" (see attached JPG image networkmapbug02)).

The correct folders structure for my B: drive is shown in the attached networkmapbug03 image file.

Changing the "Tools | Settings | View | Tree | Management | Show Floppy Drives" to ON or OFF doesn't help .... same display error occurs.

Try to activate the tree option "Show floppy drives (A:,B:)".

As I indicated in my post, changing the "Tools | Settings | View | Tree | Management | Show Floppy Drives" to ON or OFF doesn't help .... same display error occurs.

What about: Settings - Drives - "Don't show floppy drives". It must be deactivated if you use A: or B: as drive.

Settings | Drives | "Don't show floppy drives" is deactivated (not checked).

Some other things I've noticed:
1 - The "tree pane" doesn't seem to properly refresh when a network mapped B drive is included?
2 - When drive B is mapped to a network share, the B drive does not appear above C (and other) drive in the drives list in the drives/directories tree pane?
3 - It is not immediately clear to me what the purpose is of :
a) "Tools | Settings | View | Tree | Management | Show Floppy Drives"
b) "Settings | Drives | Don't show floppy drives"
??

Is it the XE release 650 oder beta 665?
For me mapped network path to B: works fine.

I suggest to update to the current beta http://www.freecommander.com/fc_beta_en.htm.

Thanks! I downloaded and installed "public beta build 665" and it appears to have fixed the screen refresh/drives problem. I'll keep using this version and report back if the problem re-surfaces.
