After MC V16 update when I opened Core Settings, everything is hidden quickly after a refresh, I can't view anything in here anymore. It was working before I think. Explorer Panel Settings is unaffected (I can see the controls properly.) I'm using MC Portable Beta on Windows 10 Enterprise if it helps. Is it only me having this issue ?!
P.S: No ! Now when I clicked "Show Hidden/ System Files Folders" icon (it was hidiing before) all my Tab files & folders disappeared !! & it's not toggling anymore. Now my MC Config File has become corrupt after re-opening 'cause I wanted to relaunch & see if the folder contents was appearing again after a relaunh. Also, it showed me the "Layout Look And Feel" Dialog before saying the Config is corrupted. Is there a solution ?

I reported a second bug, I'm locked out of my MC, it won't open, asking me to reset the config file, which I won't do. Please can you fix it ?
P.S: I have a backup from 13 days ago. But I would like to re-download a Beta & get it to work /w my existing installation…

Look like the build system got messed up. and it mixed new and old files. just revert to old backup for now.. I have to fix the build system
-
too fix it manually you need to edit the config. both Multicommander.xml and Multicommander_def.xml got corrupted..
Included is a correct MultiCommander_def.xml
the MultiCommander.xml (your settings.. got extract </config> tags..extra <config at the beging should be remove.. and all </config> except last one should be removed.

Alright thanks, I'm on it ! O.K. wait that last bit is tricky. Can you Direct Message me /w the fixed file please ?
P.S: I reverted to the old version /w my Config backup from 13 days ago. It's working but I get the error "14 ExtensionModules was invalid and could not be loaded. This can happen after a failed upgrade or external modules that needs to be updated separately." Nevermind I fixed that by replacing the Extensions folder. I'am using a backup from 13 days ago plus the Feb 2 MC Beta. I still have my recent broken version backed up if you can provide me /w the MultiCommander.XML fixed file please…

that file is your settings so it depends on you settings.. YOu just delete it. and it will be created with default settings
file should look like
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config global="0" Build="3151">
<AskLanguage value="0"/>
<appinfo>
at the beginning only 1 "<config" tag
and one </config> close tag
<experimental>
<darkmode value="0"/>
</experimental>
</config>
then just search for "</config>" and make sure there is no one except at the end of the file
Hm if you run portable version it may say
<config global="1" Build="3151">
at the top

Thanks I'll try !
P.S: Maybe it's not MC's fault, I installed NeoJ2ME emulator to play Mobile games, & it dropped a ton of folders in my MC folder ! Maybe that's why it isn't functioning properly ! Anyway I'll try to fix it manually your way first.
P.P.S: I reverted to the old Zip version download (Feb 2) while preserving my Config backup taken 13 days ago, I'm back in my MC !! Kept off the updates for now.
By the way, when I removed those 2 config tags (first & last) it reset my Config to default, so maybe that wasn't it afterall ! But yeah let me know if MC is still geared towards Win 10.
