No. I can't fix anything that I can't reproduce

I saw that in the last changelog

FIXED - TabSessionManager will now make sure menu system is loaded before loading the tab session. (Since this should be added to menu system)

If this is related to the topic of this thread, I’m sorry to say that the issue still persists

Hi
is there any special setting to do? I've put host,user and password,but it is not working,got:

Code: [Select]

Failed to connect
Failed to initialize socket - Cannot connect to server
Connection... Failed!
it works fine in total commander

thanks

Let me know any issue you have with the SFTP/SCP extension.
Normal UserName/Password login should work

I Use SFTP(SSH) daily without issue.

Sure IP and port are correct ?  Maybe FW issue. maybe have outbound block on. and MC need to be allowed allowed to connect out ?
Try enable higher loglevel in Core settings.  might output something more.

Script / Choose the Neovim config - modern way with $NVIM_APPNAME environment variable

« Last post by mlabrkic on September 16, 2025, 14:32:02 »

Multi Commander - Choose Neovim "Stable" or "Test" Config
https://mlabrkic.github.io/posts/2025/2025_09m_15-multicommander-nvim_appname/

This is the modern way of selecting the Neovim config folder by setting the NVIM_APPNAME environment variable!

Check in Neovim:
:h NVIM_APPNAME, :echo $NVIM_APPNAME and :echo stdpath("config")

Info (Multi Commander: Run the Neovim GUI): https://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php/topic,4835.0.html

############################################################

1. First of all, do this

Copy the Neovim “TEST” configuration to the “nvimt” folder: C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Local\nvimt
Then run the “Neovim-neovide-TEST” MultiScript (F11) in the “Multi Commander”.

These are my folders (stable and test):

C:\Users\<you>\AppData\Local\
nvim
nvim-data

nvimt
nvimt-data

############################################################

2. I am now using these Multi Commander scripts

Code: [Select]

F10
Neovim-neovide-STABLE
Command type: Multi-Script

@var $selectedFile = GetSelectedPaths();
@var $fileDir = PathGetPathPart($selectedFile, 1);

// @var $app = "neovide --neovim-bin=C:\\UTILS\\Neovim\\bin\\nvim";
// I have Neovim folder in Windows path: C:\UTILS\Neovim\bin\
@var $app = "neovide";

MC.Run CMD={$app} ARG={$selectedFile} STARTIN={$fileDir}

------------------------------
F11
Neovim-neovide-TEST
Command type: Multi-Script

@var $selectedFile = GetSelectedPaths();
@var $fileDir = PathGetPathPart($selectedFile, 1);

// MC.Run CMD="cmd.exe" ARG="/k set NVIM_APPNAME=nvimt&neovide "{$selectedFile} STARTIN={$fileDir}
// MC.Run CMD="cmd.exe" ARG="/c set NVIM_APPNAME=nvimt&neovide "{$selectedFile} STARTIN={$fileDir}

// start cmd shell, start neovide from cmd, and immediately close the cmd window
MC.Run CMD="cmd.exe" ARG="/c set NVIM_APPNAME=nvimt&&start neovide "{$selectedFile} STARTIN={$fileDir}

------------------------------
F12
Neovim-neovide-STABLE-without-file
Command type: Multi-Script

// STABLE configuration without an initial file

@var $selectedFile = GetSelectedPaths();
@var $fileDir = PathGetPathPart($selectedFile, 1);

// @var $app = "neovide --neovim-bin=C:\\UTILS\\Neovim\\bin\\nvim";
// I have Neovim folder in Windows path: C:\UTILS\Neovim\bin\
@var $app = "neovide";

MC.Run CMD={$app} STARTIN={$fileDir}

3. Info - TEST configuration with “Windows PowerShell”

Code: [Select]

F11
Neovim-neovide-TEST
Command type: Multi-Script

// TEST configuration with "Windows PowerShell"

@var $selectedFile = GetSelectedPaths();
@var $fileDir = PathGetPathPart($selectedFile, 1);

Script / Re: Trying to make MC open automatically with single panel

« Last post by Tom L on September 13, 2025, 19:56:38 »

OOF!

I forgot that three or four years ago I created a file to remind me for future reference (for a situation just like this in which I had to switch to a new computer) exactly how to make MC open automatically with a single panel. Now I need to create another file that reminds me to check that reminder file! It's tough getting old!

Thanks so much for the hint. I shouldn't have had to bother you or this forum!  Problem solved!

Thanks for the new RC Mathias!

Audio-tool merge mp3 files is only available via MC menu/extra/auto tools - not via context menu?

I did not think about adding it there. Will see if that is possible.

No You are saying that MC should run the MultiCommander Script "SinglePanel" when it starts..  Are you sure that you have that script in MC ? that is not a default script.
That is a script you must have created

The script is a batch file, "MultiCommander.bat."
I've attached the log file. I changed its name from 2025-09-12-(7024)-MultiCommander.log to 2025-09-12-(7024)-MultiCommander.txt so that it would upload.
