Support and Feedback / Re: How can the extension be hidden when editing a filename via F2?

« Last post by Mathias (Author) on April 10, 2026, 11:02:56 »

You mean inline rename.  No but only filename part is preselected.. and pressing -> arrow will move cursor to last char in filename before extension.
you can also quick select extension with Ctrl+E

I can't replicate that..  But problem is that lots of FTP Server behave very different.
If you watch the FTP log. Does it sends a new CWD <path> commands after the transfer ?

Maybe i was not clear.
I connect with ftp, then after doing anything, like sending a file or creating a map, it goes back to the server root.
So i have to go back to \domains\mydomain\public_html again.

Support and Feedback / How can the extension be hidden when editing a filename via F2?

« Last post by Andreco on April 09, 2026, 23:50:41 »

I searched all over the web and inside the many Configuration options, but I can't find a solution to only see the filename (without extension) when editing via F2. Now, F2 highlights the name but no the extension; however, I often have to change only the end of the filename, and then the extension gets in the way. Any way to do this? Thanks!

Also, I remain unable to figure out how to have Folder Trees open on startup when using the -L and -R command line parameters.  Please point me to where the configuration option is to enable this.

Hello, I remembered I saw a question about providing paths on the command line, so I made a few tests.

As you did, I found the documentation of the command line parameters to be there, in the "Other" category of the lateral browsing menu :
https://multicommander.com/Docs/commandlineparameters

You can provide two paths in the order left panel followed by right panel, with nothing more on the command line.
You can also precise in a different order which one is to open left, and which one is to open right, in this case you must not forget the equal sign between /L or /R and the path.

Something more to signal : if you set a tab session to be active on MC startup, then the paths given on the command line are ignored. This can be surprising, but, without having explored parameters that make that change, it is like that –at least in some situations.
(Not sure I selected the correct quotation, as you mention folder trees, and I did not answer on that.)

I unchecked this option and haven’t had the problem anymore 

Use multiple threads/cores when starting up (Faster startup)

Oh I did not notice that.

Shall try at next session.

Hello,
I have got two machines : one on which the tab session works OK, and one that saves empty tabs.

The first one runs on Windows 11 25H2 [version 10.0.2, 6200.8039], it has 64 GB RAM.
The second one runs on Windows 10 22H2 [version 10.0.19045.6466], it has 8 GB RAM.

As I am administrator on a machine that has the same user names, I could create the tabs I wanted and save them to a tab session, and copy it to Windows 10.

Before having this idea I edited the file by hand in notepad, this is somewhat longer, especially since the Windows 10 does not seem to have any editor for XML files, so I had to redo the indentation by hand to understand what I had in front of my eyes.

If you have an idea of what would be useful to investigate ...

Normally they have roughly the same .Net versions, as I develop programs on one and transfer the executable directory to the other.
But maybe it deserves verification, although if the correct .Net platform was absent it could not have been unnoticed.
I imagine the components are deployed with the program.

By the way, I did not find the documentation of the tab sessions any more, except in this thread.
At least, Dertuek knows how to ask a question.

***
On Windows 11 this is the version of MultiCommander : Multi Commander (x64) v15.8 (build 3135)
You know, to get it here I had to make a screen copy and then use the character recognition of PowerToys, as it is displayed "read-only".

I shall have to make a follow-up, the connection with the Windows 10 machine is now closed.

Both machines are updated with UniGetUI.

Sorry I clicked on Notify instead of Modify.

It was a good idea to read again, I had transcripted the gloobi-boolga created by the character recognition, and Windows version is displayed so little, that for young people it is no problem, but ... they are not supposed to die as soon as they cannot read Microsof's screens, happily.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Add Phone Link folders to MC

« Last post by Mathias (Author) on April 07, 2026, 18:30:06 »

Then maybe that phone is not connecting to windows using Windows Portable Device interface.

Some older phone was connected like remote device and got assigned a device letter by the Windows like  E: or something else..

Not sure what way your phone is connecting as. Maybe some other way that MC does not support
