Beta Releases / Re: 15.7 BETA - Fails to show all command in menu
« on: December 20, 2025, 15:23:05 »
  -- 3127 - 2025-12-17 ( 17-Dec-2025 )

  ADDED - Increased the max number of UserDefinedCommands that can be registered for Menu/Toolbar from 600 to 950

I can confirm this fixes the problem.

OK. Thank you for your patient.
Please, try to find the problem. It is very, very important.

Here is a prepared environment (MC 15.6 + UFM Custom Menus) with all my custom items. 
https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/dg9k0kf2rfqj9igeo62kv/MC.zip?rlkey=s7bdfsridi1c72rsiqw7afq8r&dl=1

File that defines paths: \MC\Config\CustomConfigPaths.xml
Menu File: \MC\UFM\1033\UserMenu.xml
Scripts: \MC\UFM\1033\Scripts\UFM.zip

Here, menu that is not displaying items:
- System -> Windows System
- System -> Windows Apps (UWP)
- System -> Windows PowerShell
- Ultimate File Manager

Loading them, but all (none?) is not registered as menu commands. so they do not show up in the menu.
Strange that it works in 15.6, I find now difference in the code for how it load that in 15.7 vs 15.6

Most of my Custom Commands works fine (I only showed in example what is going on). Only few of them not (but as you can see all of them are available in custom commands dialog).
NO - it is not working ALSO in 15.6 (screenshot is not from newest beta)!

Wait...
Commands are loaded into MC, but not displayed.
See attached image (in red frame example command - Loaded - but not displayed)

Ps: The problem is - It sometimes working OK. Still trying to find better "issue explanation"

Mathias,
I forgot about log! It clearly describe the problem.

2025-12-15 14:32:13.314 Can not register command. Limit of UserDefinedCommand reached [HASH - Command Name]
2025-12-15 14:32:13.332 Can not register command. Limit of UserDefinedCommand reached [[HASH - Command Name]
etc...

So, I hope you can fix it (increase limit).

After update to 15.7 Beta custom menu items (not everything) stopped working (not displayed).
All scripts (*.udc files) are stored in zip file (everything was fine with the same files/config in 15.6)
-Pawel

Can you describe the error more..

You got custom commands. that they are added to menu..  And they are not showing up ? Are not running when selected.  ? Are script command there if you list all commands. ( was they loaded ? )

@Mathias (Author)
I think I know what is the problem with Menu and Custom Commands. I reproduced it on Stable Multi Commander 15.6!
I got MANY commands (many custom menu items) - 627 files in 54 folders (in my Ultimate File Manager project). Is there a LIMIT? It seems it is.

If I left 443 (or more) udc files in script folder - no custom menu items are displayed. If I remove another few of them - lets say 5 -> 5 custom command is shown in menu.
That means that MC reads only specified amount of files...

Mathias,
It is working now (however, tested on another copy - I already deleted  broken installation). Maybe update process broke something?
Hard  to answer if custom menu commands was loaded or not (did not check it). It was "empty menu" - not showing up.

@total_annihilation00
My custom commands are OK. Thx. It was working before update. I think (see above) something must have broken during the beta update.


Will test it more... maybe I can reproduce the problem. For now - all is working.

Support and Feedback / ButtonBar Size (DPI > 100%)
« on: September 05, 2025, 12:31:19 »
@Mathias (Author),
Could you please take a look at my screenshot? I think there is a problem with size (scaling) of additional Button Bar - ButtonBar is a bit to small (height). Icons looks great, but are too low (or bar is to small). See the red frame (attachement).
I use 144DPI (150%).

Is it possible to set custom color of Multi Commander Window in Dark Mode?
It is #383838 (RGB 56/56/56) now...
Or Titlebar background.

I preffer a bit darker, like for example ->#191919 (RGB 25/25/25)

Yeah, right, compatibility.

EDIT: I already changed my code. It is working like as charm.
Thank you for adding those Environment Variables to MC. Waiting for Final Release :)

Will you consider adding MC Handle as another Environment Variable?

I got it using the following code (I also check the path of the process with this handle).
Handle := FindWindow('MultiCommander MainWnd', nil);
Would be much easier if I could get it from MC :)

  ADDED - MC will set enovirment variables for the MC EXE and Path. So all programs MC start will see this enviroments variables.

Thanks for adding this!
However, what are then names of this environments?

I checked MultiCommander.exe process in Process Explorer and I see those:

COMMANDER_EXE
COMMANDER_PATH
(The same as Total Commander)

and

MULTICOMMANDER_EXE
MULTICOMMANDER_PATH

I will use those MULTICOMMANDER_*
Question. Why you also added variables with the same name as Total Commander does?

Yes, it always fit. But how about get current screen resolution and set window width and height proportionally and place window centered?

Mathias,
Could you please improve displaying Multi Commander window on first run?
On my monitor (2k, 2560x1440) main window is NOT centered.

Mathias,
Have you try to improve displaying Multi Commander main window?
I would like to remind you, that the window is still not centered. Window is not proportional.
Take a look how it looks on 2K resolution after installation (on first run). See attachement image.
As you can see - MC window is not centered.

Left edge distance (163px) is different then Right Edge distance (491px). Top edge distance (156px) is different then Bottom Edge distance (212px)
How about making it proportional for each resolution?

It is something like "Preview Panel". In Total Commander it is displayed in external window, but can be also displayed in Panel (like on my screenshots).
In TC it can be extended by plugins...

Mathias,
Hover Data Functionality.

It looks promising... However, did you think about implementing such feature, like Total Commander Lister?
User select element in one panel and all related information is displayed in second panel (different information for different file type/content). Something what you did in "Hover Data".
"Lister" is better, as it can be shown imediately and can show much more info (Panel window is bigger)...

How do you think?

The window is moved to top and left.
Also, would be nice if window has some proportinal size (now, it is much wider). Take a look at screenshot.

Best regards,

Could you please answer my email about adding an option to overwrite (replace) default path to some configuration files and UDC Script directory?
Also, what do you think about it?
Is it possible to add this for next release?

Thanks,

PLEASE DONATE - I NEED YOUR HELP

For over 20 years, I've been sharing my passion with you and creating what I consider interesting and, above all, useful things for you. Completely free! That will never change.

Unfortunately, my computer (laptop) I'm currently working on has aged – it's 12 years old now, and I'm already feeling the wear and tear. My current financial situation doesn't allow me to buy a new laptop, which would allow me to continue pursuing my passion and thus share it with you. I hope that with your help, I'll be able to purchase equipment that will last as long as my current one. As we know, computer equipment is incredibly expensive these days (especially laptops). I hope that together we can achieve this.

That's why I decided to set up a special fundraiser on a recognized crowdfunding platform, allowing you to contribute transparently. The goal is ambitious, but I believe in the power of community! Thanks for any financial support.



Ultimate File Manager was born out of the need to create a tool that will make working on the computer easier. The tool, that will allow you to perform any task in a simple and thoughtful way. The tool, that will be consistent and modern. The tool, that will look how I want and do what I want. I hope it suits You as well. It is thanks to You that I have continued to develop this project, despite many obstacles. I learned a lot, spent thousands of hours to make it better. I sincerely hope (and maybe even sure) that Ultimate File Manager serves you well in all tasks (from the simplest to the most complex). I hope, dear user, that you could have completed each task faster and better by focusing on doing your job, not the tool.

Ultimate File Manager is designed for Microsoft Windows platform and is distributed to the end user as an installer, which is written in NSIS and Delphi CE. UFM Installer allows you to easy and quickly install all of the selected components (properly configured File Manager, various Plug-ins/Addons that extends its functionality and appropriately selected external applications), with the option to choose the installation mode, select components install, etc.

If you have any comments, suggestions for changes or found any problem, please SEND FEEDBACK. Maybe you know some interesting and functional plugin? Maybe you would like me to implement some functionality? Do not hesistate - Ultimate File Manager is for You! Together we can make this project even better.

Ps: Big thanks to Mathias, for developing Multi Commander - the best freeware File Manager all over the world!

Thanks.
1. OK. I hope it will change in future.
2. It is happening constantly to me... I will try to record some video, to show you... I know, you have to reproduce it to fix, but maybe we will be lucky :)

Ps: I posted this questions in MC 11 beta thread, because I use the latest beta and all I described was in new beta... btw, are you going to release new version before end of month mybe?
Is there any release date or you just release it when "it will be ready" (no major bugs)?

Thank you for Multi Commander. It is great piece of software!

Support and Feedback / DarkMode Question
« on: February 17, 2021, 23:14:07 »
Mathias,
Thanks for explanation.

I have got one more question and one potential problem...

1. Is it possible to change interface Dark Mode color? I can not find any option for this. It is a bit to light for me (just a bit). It is #383838 - I would like to use #191919 (for example). Could you add possibility to change it via options?


2. I use Coloring Rules. One rule is to show last used files (<1h). It works, but sometimes it deactivates without any reason (it works again if I change directory or refresh (F2)).

Beta Releases / Re: v11.0 - Release Candidate (Updated 13-Feb)
« on: February 16, 2021, 19:35:37 »
Mathias,

I would like to askabout MultiScript. Is there a way to get the Windows known folders path using MultiScript?

I know, Multi Commander supports TranslateEnvString function to get environment path, for example:
Code: [Select]
@var $tag = TranslateEnvString("%WINDIR%");It works great, but there is not much env variables to get...

There are plenty of Windows CSIDL_* variables (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/usmt/usmt-recognized-environment-variables)? Can I use it? How?
Or can I use guids? For example: {031E4825-7B94-4dc3-B131-E946B44C8DD5} (this should points to Windows Libraries)?

Is there support for SHGetKnownFolderPath() function to get all this paths?

I would like to display given path in MC Explorer list, using Multi Script commands via custom menu.

Thanks for any help,
-Pawel

This page should help get yo started: http://multicommander.com/docs/commandlineparameters

:) Thanks. But I hope you know I know docs...
I asked for write down examples, to be sure it is correct (I know I can test this bymyself using beta build, but I need to be sure how it should be used correctly).

So, should it be:
MultiCommander.exe /OPEN "<path>" /PANEL=Left /NONEWTAB
OR
MultiCommander.exe "<path>" /PANEL=Left /NONEWTAB
etc..

@Mathias
Upcoming build will bring new command line parameters. Great!

However, could you please add here some more information how to use it?
I mean how to pass parameters and directory to open, when you want to:

I. Open directory in already-running instance of Multi Commander
   1. Open directory in already-running instance of MC window in LEFT (Right|Active|Source|Target) panel in new TAB
   2. Open directory in already-running instance of MC window in LEFT (Right|Active|Source|Target) panel in already existing TAB

II. Open directory in new instance of Multi Commander
   1. Open directory in new instance of MC in LEFT (Right|Active|Source|Target) Panel in new TAB
   2. Open directory in new instance of MC in LEFT (Right|Active|Source|Target) Panel in already existing TAB

This is the basic example. Please, write here others.
MultiCommander.exe /OPEN "<path>"

Thanks!
-Pawel
