So......  I'm guessing no non-overlapping SaR using script or MS rename tools is possible then... 

I don't know.

I don't understand what you are doing. So I can't setup a test to test it.

Feature Requests and Suggestions / Re: Favorite should display name instead of Path

« on: December 07, 2022, 08:13:23 »

Most keys are customizable in the main app. But it is too much work to make every key in every dialog customizable..

Ctrl+F.. and Ctrl+N or only in the Favorites Windows.
alt+backspace open the favorites window

If you copy using copy and paste (Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V) Windows copy process is used.

I will check if it is possible to keep date/time when it rebuild the zip

Also the filename is not important., You can rename the script file if you want. the Guid used is the one set inside the .udc file
then you can easier identify what script is what.

By the way, I forgot to mention - the right-click menu doesn't appear - when I right-click on anything, it (text) turns red.

I think you selected Commander Styled Mouse/Keyb setup when MC started at first startup.

Try
Menu > Configuration > Quick Loon'n'Feel Setup

If you have not done any customizations.. then select Windows Explorer Style. else select Customize and only swap mouse and maybe keyb to Windows Explorer Style

There is really not much different between how WI10 and 11 works.. 11 is 10.1 with new taskbar.

That is more likely to be a MC settings thing.

Menu > Help > Backup and restore
from there you can backup all settings files from your Win10 machine and then do restore on the Win11 machine..
OR just copy the files from the config folder ( Menu > Help > Goto > Config Folder )

The glitch is the Row.  Seconds Row=4 should have been 5. and All the other should jump one step..


        <Text Column="0" Row="4" ColSpan="2" Text="${MCPictureProp.img_dimensions}" />
        <Text Column="0" Row="5" ColSpan="2" Text="${MCPictureProp.fnum} ${MCPictureProp.exposure} ${MCPictureProp.exposurebias}" />

        <Text Column="0" Row="6" Text="File date" />
        <Text Column="1" Row="6" Text="${core.date}" />

        <Text Column="0" Row="7" Text="Picture date"/>
        <Text Column="1" Row="7" Text="${MCPictureProp.date}" HideRowIfEmpty="True"/>

        <Text Column="0" Row="8" Text="${@,MCPictureProp.model}"/>

Have you tried enabling Passive Mode..You are running in PORT mode and if you are behind FW/router that require the router to forward ports..
If you are behind a router it is easier to run in passive mode,, try enabling passive mode in the bookmark for the site

might be something with MC.. FTP is tricky since no ftp server if the same.. they all work different.
However without a log or something that gives more information it is hard to say what is the problem.
It can be so many different things.

Any error in FTP log ?

problem with FTP is that all FTP Server works different. And some FTP server need special handling to work since they are not following the FTP standard.

« on: November 16, 2022, 13:02:32 »

Hmm They do not change by them self without you telling it to
It depends on what setup you selected..  In commander styled setup you got F5 for copy.. and F5 for Refresh in Windows Explorer Styled setup

Menu > Configuration > Quick look'n'Feel setup
There you can quickly change to some settings. however it can overwrite some custom settings you done.. If you only want to change key.. then select customize and only select to change keyboard to command styled. then apply and restart app

in Menu > Core Configuration you can switch language.

If startup is long it is often because that some network device that it thinks are online are not online. during start up it tries to get information on all availible devices..
You can enable full app logging and then it will logout everything it does during start up and you see what it hangs on.
Normal start up is 1-2s

Support and Feedback / Re: When I try to format a USB flash drive, I get an error message.

« on: November 10, 2022, 08:59:56 »

I don't see it as it does not work.. You get a warning that something is using the device because of file notification.  But it does not prevent you from just clicking continue.
If you do not want to see a warning. then navigate away from the device before format

Windows can unsubcribe on file notification it self since it has full control of the shell. But MC is not build ontop of the shell. So MC does not know that the format tool have started.

Support and Feedback / Re: When I try to format a USB flash drive, I get an error message.

« on: November 08, 2022, 12:53:00 »

Yes that is because file notification is active on the filesystem, So MC gets notified and refresh the view if anything is changed on the drive.
But there is no exclusive lock.. Windows will allow the device to be unmounted anyway

Not sure what the problem is,
It is not an error.. It is a warning saying it is in used. but you continue and it gets unmounted  formated.. and then remounted.

Hard to say why they do not show up for you. I get them to show up on all my machines.

I have the item in Windows 10, but not in Windows 11. Clean install...

Which OS version do you use for "all my machines"

Windows 7,10,11 upgraded from 10

87 is a generic error that means invalid parameter

It hard to say what goes wrong, depends on that input and what options used and such.
Don't really understand what you are trying to do.. you say xml files but and then you say CSV file
But are text file.. the search and replace things work on text files. but do not handle xml/cvs files in any special way, but as pure text file.

if you want to do pairs of find and replace.. there must be correct number of them..
and option for find and replace is the second one "Find many, replace with many"

« on: November 04, 2022, 13:40:10 »

You get one icon on the taskbar for each instance. But normally Windows stack/group them so you get one on the taskbar and the other when you click on that.
For me they are stacked. unless I disable that settings in Windows..
