Support and Feedback / Re: Copier/Coller

You can also check the log with Ctrl+L  If the renamed failed. it should be listed there.. BUT the rename operation can also be halted by security software in silent.. MC think it was successful but the security app prevented the call.

Support and Feedback / Re: Dotfiles won't copy/move? Just...hangs?
« on: February 05, 2026, 08:57:06 »
Thanks for the information.. I will take a look.

I have not checked yet But I suspect the error is because of some workaround that MC has for the "hidden" file attributes and linux.
Linux does not have that file attribute, but on Linux a file is "hidden" if it begins with dot "."
So Samba (the thing on linux that make file sharing on Linux windows compatible) then say that the file has hidden attribute set since it is.
and that causes some combability issue. since you can't remove or set that attribute since it is based on filename.. so MC has some workaround for "." files and Linux.
So i maybe something might be wrong with the logic around that.

Yes font is important.  the font need to support the characters else it will not render correct

Strange. MC do not convert filenames and Windows NTFS is using Unicode for filename. So it should just work.

If you got a filename that does not work. create an empty file with that name.. and just 7Zip to pack that.. (7Zip should support unicode.. Zip does not) and send me it.

5
its becuas the error dialog is open.. Its a modal dialog. so it catches all the message so they are not recieved in the module that shows windows.. it happens because each Viewer is not its own process.  Not sure it is a bug.. More a limitation on how Windows old UI system works.

Not sure what you question is.

But MC do support SFTP (Filetransfer over ssh) however.. some newer crypoalgorithms are not supported yet

Normal local NTFS filesystem ? or remote into a linux ?
Any error in the logs (ctrl+L , FileOperation log  )

Something special with the file ? does it have readonly or system attributes ?

If I create a file call ".file" I have no issue with copy/move it..

Support and Feedback / Re: MultiDataViewer problem with back search
« on: January 30, 2026, 13:52:04 »
This is not a new thing. its very old issue.
I will see if I can fix it.

10
I might be able to fix that for next version..
However if you do Copy / Paste from files that are in search result from different folders at the same time. I think it can cause issue.. Windows Copy/Paste does not like that..  Then use MC own copy process.

11
You have it under Help > Multi Commander ChangeLog  ( row 3 in menu )

Support and Feedback / Re: Column Width Problem

Can't reproduce that. But if you right click on column and select "Save Current layout as default" then it should save and remember it

I don't know why you get this. There is not much that MC can do. Everything in windows is Unicode (UTF32). MC do not do any own processing of the characters.

MC is build with unicode support and is using unicode for all text.
I don't know why it does not work for you.
Is it only some places that does not work or everywhere?
I seen Japanese and Chinese screenshot of MC, So it should be able to render it.

Very common that happens.. Filemanager application does a lot of stuff with files that are suspicious.
Normally fixes it self after 2-3 day after release.

16
Ok if you just what to make the foldername same a filename without ext. then it is a lot easier.

I'm not an powershell expert.. but to fix the powershell script. try asking ChatGPT or similar.. they are pretty good at fixing scripts..

(The reverse is in MC as a copy plugin.  "Copy Content" )

17
That is a very special use case.. There is no built in ready to go feature like that.

But you should be able to create a UserDefinedCommand of MultiScript type to do that.
The hard part is to figure out what that the folder name should be. If the folder name can be generated from what the filename is.. then it is easier.

From MultiScript you can get all selected files
Go through them one by one and from file name create the Directory name you want,.
Create that folder and then move the file to that folder..

Then you assign that command to a HotKey/Button/Menu and when you select that command it will run that on all selected files.

Support and Feedback / Re: Commander Panel
« on: January 04, 2026, 11:13:23 »
I don't know what "commander panel" is.
There is no extra extension in MC that is called that.

MC do not have a full folder compare and sync feature yet..
It has so it can compare two folders. and select what is different based on some rules. it does not compare subitems in folders. only what is shown in the two panels with each other
Menu > Edit > "Compare Folders , Advanced..."

MC will scale with Windows scale settings.. Unless you turn that off and if you want  everything bigger.. scaling with Windows Scaling is often a better chooice

The font for the Freespace field is changed is changed in Explorer Panel Settings. the icons should scale automatically

Support and Feedback / Re: Delete folders with content
« on: December 24, 2025, 10:47:00 »
It cant delete the folder if it failed to delete some files before under it.
So there must be some error before where it failed to delete some sub files..  Windows does not allow delete of a folder if it is not empty.. so if it failed to delete some files under it. it will also fail to delete the folder.

OR something protects it or permission prevents it or something else that are special with that folder

I does go down and delete every, Unless there are some issue
There must be some permission issue or other issue during the delete, Try run the application as administrator .
I can also be security software that blocks MC from deleting files.

Check fileoperation log (Ctrl+L and switch to correct log tab)

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Windows on ARM CPU
« on: December 17, 2025, 07:57:51 »
Windows ARM, Maybe.. But I don't have a Windows ARM computer so until I get one its hard to develop something for it.

MacOSX, No, all UI and other parts in MC are Windows specific and would need to be rewritten. Would require super much extra work and I don't have the time for that.

23
Yes the Windows MediaEngine (that MC is using) is not the full Media Player. it is a core part in Windows for playing actual audio (.MID are not audio files.  but instruction on how to generate sound.)

So Sorry. Mid files will probably not work

24
No that .mid did not play on my Windows 11. Look like it is not supported by default. But maybe if some 3rd party codec is installed.

Support and Feedback / Re: SFTP problem
« on: December 16, 2025, 06:31:57 »
I think it is because that you use ECDSA keys

looks like libssh2 support that, but only if the code is build to minimal support Windows 10. (since it require Windows functions that does not exists on Windows 7/8)
Problem is that for now MC is built to run on Windows 7.

That might change soon.. More and more issues is poping up to support Win7/8
