Save on exit
(1/1)
A1:
If you uncheck first 2 options in explorer panel settings under "Save on exit" (MC started with all 3 options checked), then click on 'save', then change folders in both panels and then exit MC with ALT+F4. After first restart folder paths will still be remembered as they were on exit. It works fine only after second restart (both panels resetted to C:).
So it is actually necessary to restart MC twice not just once as for some other stubborn options :-\ and this could cause a feeling that option is not working.
If MC is started with those first 2 options unchecked and if you check those 2 options and then click on 'save', folder paths are remembered immediately after first restart.

It is because there is some internal conflicts between settings. The error is that it actually is returning to C:\ It should use the last saved paths.
The easiest why to force a startup path is to use commandline parameters.

Yes I have noticed that in ExplorerPanel.xml in current user application data folder there is:
--- Code: newbielink:javascript:void(0); [nonactive] ---<init>
<autoload value="Y">
<param value1="L" value2="C:\"/>
<param value1="R" value2="D:\"/>
</autoload>
</init>
--- End code ---
But it does not work.

They are not used anymore. (They was a long time ago)
If you run the installed version it is saved in the registry under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MultiCommander\SessionHistory\a4c2985d9c7e4035a3221cfd600171d0\AutoLoad\
For portable version it is saved in
<MC start Folder>\SessionConfig\History\a4c2985d9c7e4035a3221cfd600171d0.ini
