Support and Feedback / Automatic Closing of the Copy ...
Last post by quja - Today at 20:08:33
Hi, I've been using this great tool for a short while now, and I'm not sure if there's a way to configure the copy options window, since it doesn't close automatically once the copy or move process is complete. Can this be configured, or is there a chance this feature will be added in future updates?

No. MC will only support 2 panels. That the core concept in the app and too many things are expecting that.
But you can run multiple instances on MC and put them top / bottom. and then have 4 panels on a screen

Feature Requests and Suggestions / multi browser
Last post by ncnnnn - Yesterday at 15:01:31
I hope to have a browser that supports dual windows. Current browsers are still multi-tab single window. It wastes space on these high-resolution monitors and doesn't really fit the need for accessing multiple streams of information. Edge used to have a side window where you could search for new information on the current page anytime. Now that's gone too.

I wonder if a dual-window browser could be made. Whatever I'm looking at in window A, I could check new info in window B anytime. ...

No, I can't replicate that..
I think this maybe can happen in super rare situation where the filesystem is change while it is scanning it at the same time. I Think. But never been able to reproduce it.

So what is special with setup where it happens Is the question.

Hello everyone,
I have version 16.6 build 3230 installed on the workstations, and the problem still persists. Do you have any ideas on how to handle this?

Thanks, Standa

1. This is more complex to fix one might first think. Problem with this is that dropped files are often copied in the background and the user might be doing something else  like navigate to another folder or moving around to prepare for a copy of another file while it is copying the dropped file.. And that it then change the focus to highlight the new file can be annoying. and what should be the behavior of many files are dropped.. problem is there is many special cases with this to consider..

2. This can be configured.  Core settings > FileSystem (tab).. then there is a section for option for Drag and drop operations

Last post by ike - November 05, 2026, 14:16:42
Please consider these 2 enhancements:

1. After dropping a file in a folder: Highlight the dropped file and scroll it into view. Would be very useful when dropping files in large folders
2. When dragging a file from Outlook (attachement) and dropping it in MC: Don't ask for confirmation ("Copy 1 file(s) to... ?")), just accept the file

Thanks.

Quote from: Lukasz S. on November 03, 2026, 14:13:02I think there could be a possibility to set in tag settings some logic, if this tag is set and you press its opposite it should replace the tag.

They are opposites only because you treat words/icons "like" and "dislike" as opposites. But actually they are just 2 sets of symbols.
