Hi all
I give up: I somehow am not able to create a network-share. Say that I want to assign a Driveletter P: and connect it to a path on another computer.
I can handle existing shares just fine, but I can't find a menu item or button to that effect.

What obvious ting am I missing?

Thanks for your input!

Using v 15.4. Build 3089 on x64

Hi Gary and Mathias

Many thanks for your help which works like a charm. Much appreciated!

Did I miss the relevant documentation somewhere?
It was this rather old post on the forum you mentioned, Gary, which threw me off by 'using' the MultiCommander.ini file in
C: Tools\MultiCommander\SessionConfig\Config\MultiCommander.ini and I never looked in the 'Misc' subdirectory....

Have a nice Easter, you all!

Hi Matthias

As mentioned in my other thread re. splash screen, I got a blocking message as well, after updating MC.
Using MySecurity from Swisscom which in fact is F-Secure (Version 25.2 - and they themselves use Avira Endpoint Protection Client), it blocked MC's exe file and when looking up the reason for that it linked to F-Secure's web page for an entry of Drop.Win64.FakeProgSelfRun.31090 ...

As said there, this came with the upgrade.
When, afterward, installing the portable version from 'scratch', F-Secure didn't complain and all is well with the exception of the splash screen.

This just FYI in case that helps.
I am still using Windows 10 Pro 22H2...

Hi all

Using the latest version as x64 portable  (15.4).

After MC showed that a new version was available I updated MC to said version.
Trying to run MC after the upgrade (which seemed to be successful - in that I didn't receive an error message), resulted in a virus warning from F-Secure.
But installing the new version from scratch solved that just fine (the only downside was that I had to enter all my settings again, but that's not the problem either  )

What's the problem is though, is that the Splash Screen is now showing again.
With the former versions (up from v 15.1 through updates which worked fine) I made an entry in MultiCommander.ini where I entered the line: HideSplash=1 (from an older forum post) and this worked fine.
But after the new installation I found said file in C:\Tools\MultiCommander\SessionConfig\Config\MultiCommander.ini - but entering the same line there (I did it under [Root] which is probably wrong anyway?), doesn't do anything.
I then went to C:\Tools\MultiCommander\Config\MultiCommander.xml and tried out to add this line to the following section:
  <startup>
    <autoloadtabsession value="1"/>
    <startminimized value="1"/>
    <PreventWindowsAutoScaling value="0"/>
    <HideSplash="1"/>
  </startup>
Which is probably wrong as well - but one tries things out before annoying you over here 
This resulted in a plethora of error messages a few of them referring to an entry under roaming\multicommander/ ... which most probably isn't correct as this is a portable install.
I now did remove all my alterations and MC does work just fine but keeps it's splash screen ontop of all other windows for at least 30seconds, which is a bit annoying as I have put MC in the startup folder.

Thanks for helping me out.

Kind regards from Basel, Switzerland!
