FLAT Filesystem View bugs and request
Mathias (Author):
No they can't be top level. that you can'y turn off explore panel does not matter. it is still a extension. It would require quite a bit of architecture of internal stuff just to make that happen, and that is to much work to just move a menu item.
The shortcut what it is because ctrl+b is already taken and I do not want to remove something that is already in use.

Not to move the entire Viewmode to the view menu.
You asked about moving that option, and I suggest to move it there or at least replicate it there too, which seems to me the natural place to be. That along the hotkey change, commonly used in other file managers, and also simpler than 3 keys. In fact I would reserve 2-hotkeys for actions, used more frequently, instead of show/hide UI things like the log (ctrl+L), buttons (ctrk+b), etc.
You can not disable the explorer plugin so it must be always enabled, therefore no problem to have that menu option permanent there, the same there is already a Explore Panel submenu in the View menu (?).
Just asking, was not sure if I didn't explain myself right or it's really a limitation of how things works in the code.

Uhm... I get it. Then there must be another variable playing here... I'm sure it hangs indefinitely as I say, while other file managers do finish the process at some time (1-2 minutes), that's why I'm sure it's not only a HDD problem.
In fact just tried in a SSD, the SO disk and it hangs. CPU usage 0%. No I/O reads. No memory increase. I'm using the x64 portable. Running as admin.
Can not imagine what it could be, if you need any info or thing to test, just let me know. Not that I consider this top priority as you say but since you asked about testing it.
In fact I care more about the checksum part and the problems present with wrong checksum files I suggested in the other thread.
Isabelxxx:
I think usability would be greater if Explorer submenu is top level or its own menu. But no problem, just suggesting it.
Just noted we have the possibility to change existing menu hotkeys so it's user choice to make flat view Ctrl+B and show buttons ctrl+shift+B.
hahaha Forget anything I said about the hotkeys, sorry. You already let the user to change them! (and therefore I don't mind about the default value)
Isabelxxx:
Tried again against 3400000 files/4TB and working right, then again against the SO disk SSD and hangs... could it be a security/permissions problem?
Like trying to access to specific folders... that would explain why it hangs and does nothing.

That is strange, Took me 45s to scan my drive (normal, not ssd) with 2.4M files. Lot of memory usage ofcouse around 1.5G so do not try it with 32bit version or when you low on memory. But it works.. not sure why it locks for you
Do not think it is permission, If it can't scan a folder it just skips it.
