Bug:Unchk 'Show hidden Files and Folders'/Unchk 'Show system files and folders'

[JBG2963]

Problem: When the two options 'Show hidden Files and Folders' and 'Show system files and folders' are not checked, the hidden and system files and folders still display.

Steps taken:
  1.  Under 'Explorer Panel Settings', I searched for system under the display tab.
  2.  I then checked the two options -  'Show hidden files and folders' and 'Show system files and folders'; the hidden and system files and folders were displayed, as expected.
  3.  I then unchecked the two options and the hidden and system files and folders did not display, as expected.
  4.  I then exited Multi Commander; right-click icon in the system tray.
  5.  I then ran Multi Commander again; the two options 'Show hidden files and folders' and 'Show system files and folders' are not checked, as expected, but the hidden and system files and folders still displayed, which is incorrect.

Please advise.

Thank you.

I can't replicate that.
the settings is save and use when I start again for me.

You can also toggle that setting from the toolbar via the "Eye on folder" icon" ,

When you press Apply it should save the new config file.. You can check if they are actually saved. If you got multiple instances running.. Maybe you have made some change in another instance, Then that instance will also save its settings when it exists and it can then overwrite the other settings. Bust first thing to make sure is that when you press save/apply. that the settings really was saved..  Check Ctrl+L in App Log for error after save..  Menu > Help > Go to >  Config Folder., And see if ExplorerPanel.xml was updated
The file should have this.. 1 on , 0 off

Code: [Select]

<ShowHidden value="1"/>
<ShowSystem value="1"/>
