Support and Feedback / Re: The file deletion dialog does not close

« Last post by dddima on July 12, 2026, 22:29:55 »

I started deleting files from a directory. When I force-stop it, there’s no response, and the confirmation window just closes, while the file deletion window itself continues to run....
But when I close Multi Commander, it asks me correctly if I want to stop the deletion process, and then it stops.

Support and Feedback / Re: Unpack an archive from one side to a similarly named directory on the other side

Thank you for the reply.

I tested again and indeed the directory was created when unpacking single archives.
But a few hours ago I uncompressed an archive and the directory was not created and its contents were spread all over the existing files in the target panel
I'll test it a bit more.

"Unpack archive into individual folders" are enable more then 1 archives are being unpacked.. then each files is unpacked into the name of the archive.
If you have 1 selected this is already the default behavior.  it set the already set the target folder to the path if the archive name

Scenario
An single archive from one panel needs to be unpacked in the other panel in a directory that is automatically created and named as the archive.

Current situation
The very useful "Unpack archives into individual folders" is there but it cannot be used since it is inactive.

Expected result
Make user's life easier and activate the option.



PS: I noticed that my post from https://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php/topic,4852.msg14093.html#msg14093 was locked without proper resolve.

Support and Feedback / Re: [Bug] Shift+F4 doesn't launch an editor

« Last post by Jungle on July 11, 2026, 10:42:35 »

I don't remember remapping Shift+F4. AFAIR, it worked OK since the earliest MC versions. My CustomKeymapping.xml doesn't contain any F4 line.

It's strange. I've just tired some back-up'ed versions, and they don't work as well. Some days ago it worked. As I've said, Create File dialog is shown, and empty file is created, but the editor is not launched. I did not update my editor. Neither of the log files shows suspicious info.

But F4 works. No antivirus pop-ups.

Support and Feedback / Re: Settings with font size > 14 prevents MC from saving explorer panel settings

typing ":goconfig" in command line field. you see the config files.
when you do a change to config and save/apply then that file will change MultiCommander.xml or ExplorerPanel.xml, Make sure they are not readonly or something. and if you got Multiple instance of MC running. they can overwrite the files for each other.
