minimize to system tray
minimize to system tray
Nobody uses a filemanager, neither Windows Explorer nor even TrackerV3 the whole time.
But closing the TrackerV3 has the result of loosing current state (opene folders, fonded files etc.). It would much better to minimize TrackerV3 into system tray instead of closing it at all.
In this case an user has a choice of three, not of two options only: to stay the app opened, to close it or to minimize it into system tray. And if somebody prefer not to overload his system tray, it would not a problem to make minimizing optionally via Configuration menu.

OK, that's your right. I have no any other choise besides to use some systray manager, which eats some portion of memory...
(But I hope you change your mind somewhen in future. Indeed I'm shure that some time after it will be the standard of of any application to enable user optionally choose before taskbar and system tray.)

No, that was meant to say that I never close TrackerV3, because I need it all the time and there is no reason to close it: it consumes very little RAM, does not leak a single bit of memory, and it does not build ever-growing caches as Explorer does (which is the reason why Explorer and actually the whole system gets slower and slower the longer Explorer is working, until you have to reboot).Manifold wrote:How do you manage that? Do you edit the registries so that files are opened in TrackerV3 as default?admin wrote:Well, i personally use it the whole time
Of course, that not-closing claim a bit theoretical in my case: in reality I have to close and reopen TrackerV3 all the time while developing it.
