Hi Mathias,

"I forgot to mention the feature for displaying special characters in MultiFileViewer, similar to Notepad++'s 'Show All Characters' option."

Best regards.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: "Pin To Taskbar" Option Is Missing In MC

« Last post by total_annihilation00 on Today at 11:41:56 »

Since there is a reg hack to add this to Windows Explorer. It might be that explorer is also adding this manual to the list. and not via the shell context menu system.
MC might be able to too that. But then it will be under the MultiCommander menu. But currently I have no idea how to do that 'manually'

Oh I see, it would be nice if it could be added to MC, even if it's under the MC Menu… I'd appreciate it, but only if it's not way too much trouble for you…

Hmm problem is that MC does not have much of control over what is added there

MC creates a Popup Menu. Then tells the Windows to fill it with items. according to the list of file items that are also sent to it.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / "Pin To Taskbar" Option Is Missing In MC

« Last post by total_annihilation00 on Today at 09:11:30 »

I'am noticing that the "Pin to Taskbar" context menu option (accessible via right-click) for EXE or LNK files is missing in Multi Commander. However, I can add this option manually through Windows Explorer. Is there a chance you could perhaps implement the "Pin to Taskbar" functionality within Multi Commander? I'am running Windows 10 FYI.

Very strange because there was no change around that in last beta.

I have updated to 3099, and now opening multiple files with the Enter key works again. So the issue must obviously be related to the MC code.

Fix so sorting is saved and fixed so delete also deleted the item from the actual list. (not just UI)

Thank you Mathias, you're the best ! 👍

Alias are resolved from top to bottom. So sorting them will mess that up.. BUT unless you got multiple aliases with same name (different parameters count and such) it does not matter.. So supporting multiple might not be needed, Then sorting them also does not matter

No there's something wrong /w my Aliases, I cannot even delete them, when I reopen my Aliases Box after deleting an item, it still is there ! Also sorting is not retained. I'am running the latest version: "v15.5 RC ( Build 3098 ) - 2025-05-26". I noticed there were 6 Chinese character folders in my MC folder & a weird character filename containing a Batch script for an app of mine (I deleted all of them.) Can you confirm if you can delete an Alias after creating it, & whether the Sort Order stays persistent ? I have 196 Aliases & 138 User-Defined Commands if that helps…

P.S: I tested in a fresh new Portable version & Non-Beta "MultiCommander_x64_Portable_(15.4.0.3089)" works when you change Sorting Order &/ or delete, but once I updated to latest version "v15.5 RC ( Build 3098 ) - 2025-05-26" the Sorting Order is not stored persistently/ permanently & Aliases cannot be deleted, so it's a bug I'am reporting in the latest "Release Candidate" version, which you need to fix on your end. I'am somewhat relieved it's not my MC Settings being corrupted !

Clicking on the Alias Column Field to sort Aliases alphabetically and then hitting apply doesn't make MC remember the sorted Aliases. However moving them Up/Down does make them persistent. Can you please fix the Sorting By Column so they retain their alphabetical sort order ? Right now all my new Aliases are displayed at the bottom & I have to re-sort them Alphabetically by clicking on the Alias Column Field everytime. Please do something about this… At first I thought my Aliases got corrupt so I deleted all my Aliases.XML entries after making a backup, then I deleted all my new User Defined Commands Scripts after backing them up, this issue is still prevalent though.
P.S: When I manually edit the Aliases.XML & move the entries, the Order is maintained but not when clicking Alias Alphabetical Column Field and clicking Apply !
