Strange issue with locked tabs

Post by MerleOne »

Hi,

Since 18.50.0100 I get this strange behavior :
I have a locked tab on C:\Users\MerleOne\Documents
Recently, after pausing the computer (sleep mode) and relaunching XYplorer, the path has been changed to a non existing one like :

C:\My Program Files\XYplorer\Users\MerleOne\Documents

I use the portable version which is located, as you may guess, in C:\My Program Files\XYplorer
I have never seen this issue before...
Regards,

MerleOne

Also got it on an installed version where I get a tab being redefined as :
C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\This PC
It was "This PC" before.

Regards,

Puuh, can't explain that one. I'm using lots of locked tabs and they all behave.

:?

Looks like the locked tab location is seen as a relative path.

Did you already reboot Windows? (The king of bug fixes)

Not sure I did. Will try and report if this occurs again.

Hi again,
While the issue seems to be solved on my main PC, it started to occur again on another one, running W10 x 32 bits. Again, the "This PC" tab gets transformed into "XYPlorer Application Path\This PC", of course it won't open. This occurs even after reboot but I am sure on what triggers it actually.
Regards !

You mean you're *not* sure what triggers it?

Yes, sorry, this is quite strange actually... I try to keep the tab unlocked to see if it changes something.
