Change the Delete action in shell menu?

#1 Post by FreeComUser » 08.02.2024, 03:30

I've started using FreeCommander after a break of several years during which for practical reasons I used a different program. Now I'm back using this excellent program and I'm trying to make a few customizations.

If I want to delete a folder or a file using the context menu (right-clicking on the folder or file) towards the bottom of the menu there an entry named "Delete". If I select it, then the Windows Delete dialog comes up. However, I would prefer to see the FreeCommander Delete dialog anywhere in the Shell Menu. I have already enabled FreeCommander Delete in Tools > Settings > General > File/folder operations > General tab and it comes up on the main toolbar and in the File > Delete menu.

Everything is quite logical, since the right-clicking on the folder or file calls Windows (not FreeCommander) context menu.

I checked, exactly the same behavior is observed in current versions of Double Commander, Multi Commander and Total Commander.

Thank you for the information. I'll train myself to avoid using the Shell Menu for this purpose and to use any one of the other options.
