Title: Bug 2025: all files and folders in the current folder randomly become duplicated
Post by: Turpal on October 28, 2025, 18:57:49

I see the 10 year old problem https://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php/topic,1479.msg5333.html#msg5333 (https://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php/topic,1479.msg5333.html#msg5333) is still not resolved, now we have not only duplication but a triplication of directories

No it is nothing wrong with the disk

It is a know issue, That can happen very rarely on some system.

@Mathias I don't think it is normal to refresh the files each time you do something. It should be corrected to do all the refreshes automatically.

Becuase it is not reproduceable
It is probably a timing issue or something when the filesystem changes while it is already updating it or something. There are locks so this should not happen but look like on some system it can happen anyway some rare times.
But never been able to reproduce it.

A Force fresh should fix it, F2/F5 (depending on key setup)
