(w7x64, MC v6.9.1 b2306)

Twice out of 4 cold boots this week, when loading MC it has hung on 'reading MC config' for <90 seconds.
It does complete loading & run but this stall is unusually long. Splash screen is usually only visible for a second or 2.

For me every MC cold launch takes long time. But my hardware is ~15 years old.

The other thing I've noticed with the recent betas was that it randomly resets column width, I need to right click & restore.

Several releases (not only betas/rc) have this issue. Unfortunately I haven't found exact way to reproduce it.

that is not a solution because sometimes the EXE is launched from taskbar and in those cases, it takes no params.

See no problem. Create a shortcut with commandline param and pin it to taskbar.

By default you can't do this.

But you may create user defined command and pass it as a command line param when launching MC, like the following example:

Code: [Select]

X:\mc\MultiCommander.exe -AutoRun="split 100/0"

Support and Feedback / Re: Use of ONLYFILES & ONLYFOLDERS Commands

« on: October 13, 2016, 09:58:33 »

Try adding

Code: [Select]

FILTER=*
So the command should look like

Code: [Select]

MC.Explorer.Select ONLYFOLDERS FILTER=*

Support and Feedback / Re: Need help with MultiRename

Error message is just "Failed to rename"? No more information? What does FileOperation log show?

Maybe some folder (which you haven't selected) has the same name as the new name of a folder being renamed?

MC still can't unpack archives (Alt+F6 and MC.Filesystem.Unpack) to protected locations like "X:\Program Files". No Admin mode activation request, no errors in FileOperations log.

Is it planned to be fixed?

You may create user command:

Code: [Select]

MC.Explorer.Copy NODIALOG
P.S. It seems to be broken in 6.4.3

You may create User Defined Command with command type Multi-Script. Like this

Code: [Select]

MC.SetActiveTab PANEL=LEFT TAB=1
MC.SetActiveTab PANEL=RIGHT TAB=1

and specify command line param -AutoRun="your_command_name"

Mathias
Maybe -AutoRun param should also recognize command Unique ID?

Beta Releases / Re: Multi Commander 6.4 BETA/RC

Filesystem scan
1. Enter %windir% (or very "big" folder with thousands of files) in both panels
2. Enable Flat View in one panel (e.g. left) and then in other (right).
3. Abort file scanning in the first (left)
Result: after operation has been aborted both panels become empty.

Language
1. "Show filesystem log" string in Core settings seems to be hardcoded.
2. There is a popup menu in the settings. Strings "Load presets" and "Revert value to default" seem to be hardcoded. And these functions don't work

New filesystem scanning.
1. Go to 'big' folder like x:\windows or x:\users (tens of thousands; actually I can't provide more accurate values)
2. Switch to List View
3. Enable Flat View
4. After scanning scrolling via keyboard gets broken. Cursor can be moved but file list is not scrolled until scrollbar is clicked.

View mode switching.
After changing view mode via UI (clicking btton and choosing mode from menu) focus remains onto panel with buttons (root/view mode/free space/device dropdown). I think it should go onto the active file panel.

Hotkeys
If Quick Search is done via Ctrl+Alt+[Letter] or Alt+[Letter], then other Ctr+Alt+ (Alt+) based shortcuts don't work. I think MC should warn a user in both cases:
a) in Customize keyboard wizard when user tries to set Ctrl+Alt / Alt based shortcut while the same Quick Search is enabled;
b) in Explorer Panel settings when user tries to set Ctrl+Alt / Alt based Quick Search while having the same based shortcuts.

P.S. Flat view was tested on Intel i-5 3570 CPU, 8 Gb RAM, Win7 Enterprise.

But if I just pack empty folder without filter, it is added to archive.

Support and Feedback / How to set packer filter properly to keep empty folders?

« on: July 14, 2016, 10:57:53 »

E.g. i have the following file/dir structure:

Code: [Select]

\txt
  1.txt
  2.txt
1.dat
2.dat
3.txt

If i set pack filter to "-*.txt" then archive will not have txt folder. But i want that folder to be in the archive even it's empty. What is the proper filter?
