Steps to reproduce the problem:

  • Backup your configuration!
  • Completely uninstall MC 64 bit, removing all settings (check all boxes when prompted.)
  • Download and install MultiCommander_x64_(15.8.0.3135).exe
  • Choose "Windows Explorer compatibility Look n Feel"
  • Exit MC
  • Restore your backup config
  • Exit MC
  • Launch MC
  • IMPORTANT: DO NOT UPDATE TO THE BETA WHEN PROMPTED!  choose "ASK LATER" for test purposes.
  • Create a Folder (F7). It works perfectly. The "New Folder" is created.
  • Exit MC
  • Launch MC again and this time, proceed to update to the beta
  • Create a folder (F7) fails. Nothing happens after updating to the beta version
so until this is repaired,  I am staying on the release channel. I had to go to Configuration -> Core settings and disable:
[ ] check for and download an update of a Beta version if available

Otherwise I'd have to remember to keep choosing "Ask Later" when prompted to update to the beta which would re-introduce the bug again. It's too easy for me to accidentally click the update and reintroduce the bug so that's why I'm staying on the release channel until I hear back from you
