Re: Search textbox..?

Yep calling it "filter bar" is fine. I was just copying the exact behaviour of QTTabBar because I find that tool useful. That doesn't mean we want to be just like it. Using the word filter fits better for explorer++. Having a search more like win7 explorer would be quite useful. And if it ...

Re: Slow startup fix caused by floppy

I updated the patch to support windows 7.
If you need an exe (eg you don't have VS2010 to apply the patch), this one wont have that annoying startup floppy delay:

Re: Deleting files takes too long

This problem is happening on a different XP machine. It takes so long to delete a new folder, I kill explorer++.exe and open windows explorer instead. If I go to the folder above the "deleting" folder in windows explorer the folder instantly disappears. Wonder what was happening all that t...

Re: Search textbox..?

I started using the windows 7 explorer search textbox, I stopped using it because it would search all subdirectories too, matching stuff I didn't want. I looked for a way to disable recursively searching subdirectories, but couldn't find a way :(. I went back to QTTabBar's search. Simply typing a su...

Reopening same folder in single instance mode

Previously if you opened the same folder multiple times from the command line in single instance mode, you would get lots of duplicates of the same folder (and it wouldn't even restore the window). Windows explorer has the nice ability that when you open the same folder twice from the command line i...

Re: Best practice ++ folder

I put it in a separate folder.
I also put that folder in the PATH environment variable, so running it is as easy as windows explorer.

Re: Navigation via letter key

I've had this problem too, its quite annoying. Pressing the key several times did not help (don't think I clicked multiple times though). It happened on XP. My workaround was to scroll and watch carefully or start a cmd prompt at the directory so I can auto complete the filename. I can't reproduce t...

Re: save tabs, even into multiple groups of tabs

To apply a patch, you need to get the source code and apply the patch. You also need to have a compatible version of Visual Studio to build the exe. Read: http://www.explorerplusplus.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=239 Install TortoiseSVN 1.6.15 or newer. Right click the patch file and choose &quo...
