Don't understand what you want to say? You got some specific issue ?

Important work is done first. But whats important for you might be different from what is important for another. Also my time is limited so I do prioritize what to work on.

Reproducing bug are a real pain and very hard because of many reason. First. It is very very hard to get a good bug report and description of what is happening, what they did and so on.  And also most people do not even report the bug. Then how do you expect it to get fixed. Just because something does not work for you. Does not mean it the same for everybody else.  Most likely it works for them.
The problem with Windows is that not two machines are a like, All peoples setup are different.
Version of Windows is very very very rarely and cause of a bug. It is very rare that somethings works in Win7 but fails on Win10.
Many issues are because of conflict is with other strange software installed (Specially ShellExtensions (the biggest mess in Windows and the cause of most crashes on Windows) or other software that hook them self in deep in Windows).
Or with strange tweaks into Windows. (Like disabling swap, This is a cause of many crashes..)

"your developers" Hmm there are no developers.. Only me and my spare time.

1.Think completely and work and that thinking should be done at once,do like this when writing also ,as little thinking causes mistakes.

2.think of each bit of how it can be improved but don't add useless and unnecessary features

3.Increase patience

4.do important work first

5.If u can't reproduce a bug normally then test thoroughly and try to reproduce for 2,3 times.

6.As far as possible try to reproduce bugs in win10 64bit as most of the users in the world use win10

Make this read by all of your developers or else mistakes will happen.If they completely think and work then bugs will be properly fixed

Will you commit your changes to the QL GitHub ?
I'll try. Or will ask the author to merge the changes.

@jfmoyen,

AFAIK Space is the default (and the only) hotkey registered by QL itself to open and close preview. I tested 3 cases:

You are absolutely right, and I'm an idiot.... SPACE is a QL default. However, I ALSO assigned it to a MC command, along the lines of 'Quicklook.exe "${filepath}" '. So the two bindings were competing, as it were.

It works perfectly now - what a legend ! :-)

Will you commit your changes to the QL GitHub ? https://github.com/QL-Win/QuickLook
They would then be included in future updates etc.

Thanks a lot !

@jfmoyen,

AFAIK Space is the default (and the only) hotkey registered by QL itself to open and close preview. I tested 3 cases:

1) launch QL, then press Space in MC and navigate: everything looks fine;
2) create User Defined Command MC.Run CMD="x:\ql_path\quicklook.exe" ARG="${focusfilepath}", assign some hotkey: fine
3) create new profile in File Type Setup / Viewers (F3 default): fine

Fine means that preview appears and stays until manually closed. I tested it on Win10 and Win11 (real and VM). I can only suppose that Space is somehow pressed twice making QL close preview (as long as Space is used for both open and close preview)

@jfmoyen,
Well, I've made QL to monitor MC. Here's the files. Archive contains only updated binaries along with source files, so you can build QL yourself. Password is QuickLook

Well, you're a star, what can I say ?
Except - when I press space (my binding for preview, replaces the regular F1) QL appears, and then disappears immediately - UNLESS I very quickly move (up/down arrow) to another file. In which case QL stays open and has the expected behaviour.

It's tantalizingly close from perfect :-)

Please tell me if there is anything useful I can do to help diagnose.

Support and Feedback / Skip files on defect sectors when copying files?
« Last post by t-punkt on February 18, 2024, 12:22:45 »
Unfortunately two drives in my NAS (RAID-5) have bad sectors.
I want to copy all available files to my backup-NAS.
How can I configure MC to skip files that can't be accessed?

Thanks a lot for helping.

I never used the PDF preview in Windows Explorer before, but I've tested this feature now and I have to say, it works, but it doesn't work in MC. Moreover, the crash without any crash report is repeatable; it takes 3-5 minutes, and then it crashes. The preview for images works.

I guess that it uses the FineReader WindowsPreviewHandler.  I have not have any issues with the default preview viewer that is provided by windows
However if you want to disable the pdf preview you can do it in preview customized and in the configuration for Pdf and office files.. remove the "*.pdf" file matching..
