Christian Ghisler heeft de tweede release candidate van versie 7.50 van Total Commander uitgebracht. Dit programma kan worden gebruikt als vervanging voor Windows Verkenner. Doordat het beeld in tweeën is gesplitst, is het eenvoudig om bestanden te kopiëren, maar het programma kan veel meer. Zo zijn er diverse manieren om bestanden aan te passen, zijn er een ingebouwde ftp-client en een multi-renametool ingebakken en is er ondersteuning voor een groot aantal compressieformaten. Verder kan de functionaliteit worden uitgebreid met plugins.
Nieuw in versie 7.50 is onder andere dat de ftp-wachtwoorden kunnen worden beveiligd met een met aes256 versleuteld 'hoofdwachtwoord', dat de afzonderlijke folders in de adresbalk aanklikbaar zijn ('breadcrumbs'), en dat de interne archiefuitpakker nu ook met multi-volume rar-bestanden en met rar-bestanden met een wachtwoord overweg kan. Het volledige overzicht met de veranderingen sinds versie 3.00 kan in dit tekstbestand worden gevonden. Naast een reeks bugfixes is in deze release ondersteuning voor de Chinese taal toegevoegd, waarmee de installer naar 3,04MB is gegroeid:
Release Total Commander 7.50 RC2Release Total Commander 7.50 RC2 pre 1
- Added: Chinese main land language now included by default
- Fixed: Use Unicode functions to subclass windows, e.g. when showing the right click context menu
- Fixed: Selection was lost when switching away from TC and back while quick filter active, even if nothing changed in the directory
- Fixed: FTP servers which return paths in the form "c:/some/dir" instead of Unix form "/some/dir" didn't work with queue function of background transfer manager (+ button or F5-F2)
- Fixed: Changed certificate (used to sign installer and program) to new company name "Ghisler Software GmbH"
- Fixed: FTP: Chinese UTF-8 names on Chinese Windows were sometimes not detected correctly
- Fixed: FTP resume upload in foreground -> names of source and target file were not shown
- Fixed: In place rename: ENTER+ESC didn't work when renaming file after changing path with in place edit
- Fixed: Breadcrumb bar: Do not close dropdown list when user releases mouse over up/down arrow panels, only during drag&drop
- Fixed: Some message dialogs couldn't be shown after copying in the foreground (because file dialog handle wasn't reset to 0)
- Fixed: Auto-refresh file list when switching away from TC and back also when a quick filter is active (and keep the filter active)
- Fixed: Accessing UNC paths longer than 259 characters didn't work. Reason: They require a DIFFERENT prefix in the form \\?\UNC\\\path
- Fixed: When moving files/dirs to a new directory, do not simply copy the security attributes from the folder. Instead, set empty security attributes and "inherit" flag
- Fixed: Quick filter (Ctrl+S) couldn't be removed in virtual folders with F2/Ctrl+R (reread source)
- Fixed: Do not try to get per file icons for files desktop.ini and target.lnk in directories which are part of a virtual folder (attribute set to read only or system, contains file desktop.ini)
- Fixed: "Delete" menu item missing in separate tree
- Fixed: Ctrl+Up arrow on LNK pointing to deleted destination could cause an access violation
- Fixed: Now using MS VC++ 6.0 instead of Watcom C++ for installer, because it didn't work for one user
- Fixed: Reduce flicker of right click cursor progress bar when moving mouse
- Fixed: Drag&Drop: Cursor could lose its attached file icon when not moved for a while over the target panel
- Fixed: Watchdirs didn't correctly handle external quick filter dll (tcmatch.dll)
- Fixed: If IViewAdditionalTypes was longer than supported, the types could be cut in the middle, so a wrong search could result (e.g. *.cdr could be cut as *.c or just * when length reached)
- Fixed: Internal associations: Current path wasn't set before starting an external program when an association menu was shown (open=* option)
- Fixed: Click on locked tab would open new tab if DrivesShowUpcase=1, but the tab is stored with a lowercase drive letter
- Fixed: Watchdirs may miss some files in right panel if both panels show the same dir, and 100s of file changes are reported in a short time
- Fixed: Standalone synchronize dirs: The title bar was cleared when sync copy ended while the dialog was in the background
- Fixed: Files - Split file: Option "Delete files on target disk" no longer worked (it should work on removable disks only)
- Fixed: Some dialog box controls were no longer translated: Tab in packed file info dialog, some comboboxes in main configuration dialog after changing language and click on "Apply", Configure custom sounds, Run minimized in button bar dialog
- Fixed: Resource leak when creating Unicode controls from non-Unicode window class -> Windows seems to create one extra USER object each time
- Fixed: Right click context menu, Windows 64bit: X64 submenu wasn't available in current path or drive right click menu
- Fixed: Right click context menu, Windows 64bit: X64 submenu not working on virtual folders -> make it work for those which can be resolved to a real path
- Fixed: Windows 7: Progress bar in taskbar icon remained after clicking "background", pausing and then canceling the operation
- Fixed: Couldn't auto-disconnect ftp on suspend, which could crash some VPN software -> wincmd.ini DisconnectOnSuspend=0 with 0=no, 1=disconnect all ftp, 2=disconnect ftp+fs plugins, 3=both
- Fixed: FTP delete in background transfer manager didn't consider the "FTP show hidden files" option, so files in subdirs starting with a dot couldn't be deleted
- Fixed: Synchronize dirs, load list of "only selected" from file: Last item in list could be ignored if the list was using Unicode and didn't end with a line break
- Fixed: Dual monitors, button bar: ToolTip was shown on wrong screen when using keyboard interface
- Fixed: FTP, Synchronize dirs: Warn the user only once about files with same name but difference case (e.g. 'a' and 'A'), even if there are multiple
- Fixed: Hotkeys were not translated (Ctrl->Strg) in German Lister
- Fixed: ToolTip was shown for directories containing a dot although none should be shown, because the text after the dot was seen as an extension
