File associations being lost with open folder in new tab followed by sleep

Post by geoffyates »

Admittedly I am still using 14.80.0200.

When opting to 'open folder in new window' to begin with everything is OK. Double clicking on files will open them as expected. If the computer is allowed to go to sleep and then subsequently woken up there is then a problem. File associations no longer work and this applies to the entire instance of XY, and not only the tab concerned. Open with has the same problem. Show 64-Bit Context Window is a successful workaround. Exiting XY and then restarting it solves the problem.

OK you might be about to suggest I try a more up to date version. I was going to do that. With XY 20.40 I did not get as far as testing the above scenario. Before that I noticed another problem though. Also a waking up after sleep issue. I will make another post about that shortly.
