Locked Path does not get applied automatically when changed

#1 Post by Forez » 11.01.2024, 08:34

How to recreate:

#1] Go to e.g, volume C

#2] Create folder TEST-1

#3] Lock its Tab

#4] Navigate using this Tab up to root folder and then rename that folder to TEST-2

#5] Switch in current Panel to some other locked Tab or create a new one

#7] Switch in current Panel back to locked Tab of now no longer existing folder TEST-1. You should get a pop-up box saying
The system cannot find the path specified
C:\TEST-1
and after closing it you should be still in the Tab of TEST-1 but with the Address Bar showing a path from previous Tab you navigated from

#8] Right click on header of it to access its

Properties > Locked path

and change it to TEST-2, either by renaming it or by using the >>...<< button evoking the Browse for folder window


What happens? This locked Tab will work from now on A-OK but the user is forced first to refresh it or to switch from it to some other Tab and get back to it in order to access

C:\TEST-2

folder


Solution to this minor but annoying issue would be to make FreeCommander perform an automatic refreshing of the Tab / Panel whenever user clicks OK when leaving any Tab Properties window



I am using Build 900 64-bit Donor Portable on Windows 10 Enterprise 20H2 x64

This seems to have been fixed somewhere between build 900 and 905

Thank you
