Thank you very much for your help!
I just started using your program and I really like it. I have a few questions, but most of them have been answered.
How can I increase the font size in these areas?
Menu is actually drawn by Windows. This is drawn larger / smaller depending on your monitor scaling or windows settings for that.

In the file viewer...
Option > Configure Profiles, Then you can create different for different types or just change the default one

I was able to test this.. I do not get a password dialog when having a keyfile that is not protected with password

4
I dont know what 3rd party ssh library they are using..

But sure you press OK in the ask password  dialog. because "Ask for password for keyfile failed - Aborting..." should only be outputted when canceling it.
I can't really test my self at the moment since I do not have access to any key login.

I added a password to the private key file via:

Code: [Select]
ssh-keygen -p -f
But that leads to the following error:

> Failed to authenticate using keyfile : -19

Then I deleted the PW again via the same ssh-keygen command and now MC accepts the empty PW (no popup appears), but this still ends in the same failed authenticate error message.

-19 = ERROR_PUBLICKEY_UNVERIFIED - The username/public key combination was invalid.

6
It should send a blank pw to SSH if you just press ok in password dialog. You sure there is not any other error.. Any error in the Log ?
Sure you press OK in the password dialog. the error "Ask for password for keyfile failed - Aborting..." is only outputted to the log if the Ask Password dialog is cancelled

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Free space in the interface.

Drives are one toolbar... FreeSpace info area are one. they are separate in MC.  They can't be merged into one.
But instead of have a drive bar inside the explorer panel. you can have a global one instead on top. to save some space..



8
Not sure that can be changed.  MC is using 3rd party library for the SSH. So MC do not have full control over everything

no it is different bars.. But why not have a global drive bar instead then you don't need the one inside the explorer panel.

Support and Feedback / Re: Had lost the thumbnails
« on: September 01, 2025, 07:00:59 »
So you did not have tumbnails but fix it.. Okey good.. using Windows in settings is preferred. It support many more file formats for thumbnails.  Auto will select Windows by default if you are on Win8+
Using Internal. MC only cache thumbnails to memory. so a restart will clear cache. Why It first did not work for you I don't know. But thumbnail system can log all error and what it does to the logs and any error would have been outputed there.

Yes

You can enter a "view filter" in the filterbox at the bottom of the Explorer Panel (where total num of files and total selections are shown )
You can quick go to the filterbox with Ctrl+F and then enter '.exe' and the view will be filtered to only show files matching .exe

No there is no setting for that.
I think it is because it is a move on same disk it already entered into a rename operation so data is never copied. so then it cant append

15
Its planned to redo how that entire dialog works. But the entire keyboard customization system is also planned to be rewritten, and it will not happen before that is done.

16
Yes some are fixed and currenty can't be changed (current techinical reason).. The are reserved in customization so that you are not overriding them. causing conflicts.

But you can add new command that does it using User Defined Commands and custom Commands..
https://multicommander.com/Docs/customcommands_list#mc.explorer.sort
(Sort by column (num) or by column name)



17
You mean you want to move input focus to the command line field ? so you can type command into that ?
You can assign hotkey for that in "core" module.. "Change input focus to the commandline field"
you can also configure so it automatically switch to that if you start tying . with or without holding some modifier key like ctrl/alt.. that is done in explorer panel settings

And holding shift while export list to file in customized key. it will include the internal commands code for the commands.

Change key for sorting is currently not customizable.. But you can create a Custom Command what that calls MC.Explorer.Sort and then assign that command to the hotkey you want

What is not working.  does it not start ftp module at all.. does not connect?  tryies to connect but fails. ?  so many things that can be not working..

S3 hmm old system ? these days S3 should not affect network. but before S3 sleep was able to mess up network things..

19
Maybe
In advanced search. You can add rules for Extended Properties.
And "Path" is a property. And you can add a Rule there for wildcard matching of the path "*/GOOD_*
And then you have *.json as the normal filename matching

Beta Releases / Re: 15.6 BETA

Thanks for the additional features Mathias.  8)

I think that the last update may have broken something in the MS execution. MC 15.6 b3110 x64 on Win11 24H2 b26100.4652
I get a ‘Cannot delete’ msg when attempting to delete or move files using my previously working scripts.
Stepping through in the debugger everything seems 100% until the delete command is reached, I tried with & without options & it always fails.
E.g.
Code: [Select]
@var $currentPath = GetSourcePath();
@var $Items = GetSourceItems(1);
@var $count = arrayCount($Items);
@var $curItem;
@var $fullFilename;
@var $array2[];

// Loop all items in the $Items array
for( $n = 0; $n < $count; $n++)
{
  $curItem = $Items[$n];
  $fullFilename = $currentPath ^ $curItem;
  @var $isMatch = StrIsRegExpMatchNoCase($fullFilename, "[a-z0-9]{30}");

  if($isMatch)
  {
      arrayAdd($array2, $curItem);
  }
}

@var $options[] = {"RECYCLE", "NODIALOG"};
DeleteFiles($array2, $options);
Breaks at last line with error msg (attached screenshot).

Any ideas?  Thanks!

Can you give me example on how filenames should be for the script to try to delete them ? so I can do some testing

Menu > Configuration > Core Settings
First option there is language

23
it is grey if a session is not load loaded

Make sure the tab session is loaded.. then you can do File > Tab Session > Save.. this updates the loaded tab with current
"Save As.. " will create a new tab session

Support and Feedback / Re: context scan menu
« on: July 13, 2025, 21:28:58 »
Im note sure I understand the issue. something with option in Shell ContextMenu.
Problem is that MC do not have much control over that. MC ask Windows for the Shell Context Menu. And it is up to the installed Shell Extension. Problem is that some of them assume that trey are called from Windows Explorer. and if not. they do not return any item for the menu. So.. MC have no control of 3rd party shell extensions
