Bizarre pane color problem (updated)

[laffin_boy]

(On my Win 7 64 machine where i'm still using 20.80.01):

On my computer I have upper & lower panes which have one background color for focused or active panes and a different color for when the opposite pane is focused. Been this way , trouble-free, for thousands of years. But now I have a strange issue where one particular folder - which has a "home" tab on both panes - is apparently stuck in the the "unfocused" background color - regardless if it has focus or not. In other words it's the location - not the tab that's the problem! None of my tabs are locked or set as default.

And i'm baffled.


Any suggestions?

it's hard to say about "old" version, but in such situations easiest advice - try to run fresh copy of XY and check same behaviour there(either make copy of XY to other folder, to run it without current settings, or check ::fresh command). Obviously if didn't happen before and you didn't update for long, smt changed in your settings to lead to behaviour.
