FreeCommander Forum

Like viewtopic.php?t=14173, I am getting these popups.
I updated 2/21/2026 with "FreeCommanderXE-32-en_setup941.zip." Has not stop giving the popups every time I open the program (can be several times a day too).
This is a home, personal PC.
Thanks.

The search filters saved in a profile in search, which I found are in FreeCommander.fav.ini.

I already have those backups, and I back them up with a program as well.
I added new filters and found they are added into FreeCommander.fav.ini. None of the backup files for over a month have the filters in that file. Weird.
I made a new backup from Freecommander. Manually backed up the FC backups ...

I would say only been using a profile for more than a year. I had a profile for maybe a year. Then it was gone and as much as I tinkered to figure it out, just recreated it. Been fine now few months and then disappeared again. Which made me decide to see if it happened to anyone else.
I only update ...

Hello.
Am wondering if anyone has any thoughts to this. I noticed this twice.
I can make a custom profile for search. It will work for days/weeks. Then one day, POOF. Not custom profile listed in search's drop box.
Thoughts or methods I can try to restore them from a backup?
Thanks.

Ah, you got it. I do use the 32bit. I did not think of that. I change the plugin file and now it opens archives without giving me the error again.
Thank you.

Darn. I tried your method still a no go.

Deleted everything under "C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\plugins"

Grabbed that Total Commander file.

Extracted and copied into mentioned folder.
C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\plugins\Total7Zip
/64
7-Zip History.txt
7-zip.chm
7z.dll
7z ...

Yups, I do have 7zip installed. Been using it since version one.
Let me try your method and I reply back...

Hello.

I have been trying to get compressed files to open from FreeCommander using 7-Zip. I can not seem to make that work.
My desktop uses c:\programs\freecommander\ and a virtual uses the set default (that other people use) C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\
Testing on my virtual first, I ...

Ooohhh, interesting. Will play around with this option. Thank you.

Hello.

I am wondering if there is anyway to show more details when copying/moving files.

Basically if there is a way to see the full path of file is being copied from and to?

Or is that a Windows thing ...

I somehow have fixed my issues, by setting once more my individual values at

Column profiles > Profile settings... > Profile name > [choose any profile] > Define columns [icon]

So please try to go over them once more. Or in worse case scenario, create a new one from stretch [with the old ...

I am also having issues still with auto resizing even though I changed settings. I have my profile set up to "auto resize for name column" to 50 (even 35 I tried). Seems to work on the folder I am in but as I switch folders/drives, the column sizes changes to other values it seems. However, Recycle ...

That combo worked, thanks. I no longer am getting two tabs opened (in either pane) anymore. Just the one.

A few weeks ago FC has been opening with two tabs, even when I close them. So when it opens it goes to my default folder normally (say C:\). Now it will open with a tab for the default folder and a tab for my last used folder. So say I close that second tab. I am now on C. I will go to D:\temp\. I ...
