Support and Feedback / Re: Menu "Help->Go to...->Config folder" opens application folder

« on: October 04, 2011, 17:29:59 »

It depends on how it is installed. or if running from portable device.

Normally configuration is located under the personal appdata folder

( eg win7 -> "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\MultiCommander\Config\"  )

But if running from portable device. Then we do not want to store the configuration on the host computer, so then everything is saved under the application folder.

Support and Feedback / Re: How do I change the copy strategy permanently?

Copy to USB is tricky.
USB Memory stick devices work better if the buffer chunks are very big.. but copying to Harddrive connected to USB works better if buffer chunks are smaller.

I haven't been able to detect if a device is a USB Memory type of device or harddrive in a consistent way.

I did some testing and I looks like the preset does not save the RW Strategy even if that checkbox is checked.
That is a bug. I will fix that asap so that will be fixed in the next beta.

Save as default is not saving the r/w strategy selection.

Creating a preset that autoload on all path might be a solution.

Select a strategy that is you have configured and save with the settings you want.
Then in Presets. Create a new and only check "read / write strategy" (uncheck everything else)
Under the "Autoload this preset if target path is..." add "*"
and then save it.

Now that preset will autoload on all paths and set that r/w strategy.

( or changing all the strategies to the same settings. )

If you turn off "Autosize columns" that will not happen.

Menu > Configuration > Explorer Panel Settings > Layout (Tab) > Sorting and Columns

Sorry for not answering. I totally missed that post.

There are a couple of ways

Hotpath (Right click on field showing current path) this paths can also be accessed with ctrl+<num>

You can also a change path using 'user commands' and add that command to the button panel, or Menu. or assign a shortcut to it, or assingn an aliases to it.

You can also create aliases that expands into a full path.  So if you enter a word in the commandline field. that word will then expand to a full path and it will then go there.


A more unified are batter ways are planed for the future.

Download the file and replace the .exe

New MultiCommander.exe (require build 840)

If you can.

Try enable the Application log and set log level to "information" and enable "save to file".

Menu -> Configuration > Core Settings > [tab] Logging.

To find the log file you can go to Menu > Help > Goto > Log Folder.

The file will be named "<date>-(num)-MultiCommander.log"  it should have some text in it that says

"<date> <time> [Transfer2PortalDevice] ......"

I would be like to see all the lines with "[Transfer2PortalDevice]"

That way I can track down how far it really gets.

So it works if you uncheck the "Create MCStart.exe in the root" option ? but hangs if it is checked.

What OS does it fails under Win7 ? Xp ?

« on: September 03, 2011, 11:16:48 »

Thanks for reporting the problem.

I done some testing and been able to confirm it, the width of the tab is a factor but also the High DPI mode (125%) affects it.

I will fix this to the next release.

To save the column layout you need to modify the default column set.

Right click on the column header and select 'Change Column Sets' then select '[Default].

To edit the column layout and order for this column set, you press the Change button (located under the list of columns)
(Or select 'Current Column Setup' from the 'Copy From' drop down, located under the button)

Then a dialog will popup where you can add/remove and arrange order of columns. Press OK. and back in the Change Column set dialog. you press Save Changes. Now the default column set will always be what you set it to.

Changing the icon however is not possible to change at the moment. Because of some internal issues this is not an easy fix. But I will put it on the list, And see if I can fix it in the future.
