Tree of mapped network drive disappears

[peterbonge]

Hello.

Today I've noticed a problem with version 26.80.0205 and mapped network drives: If I double-click or right-click a file of a mapped network drive, the tree of the drive disappears. F4 doesn't bring it back. I just can access the root of the drive and then navigate in the list view. Favorites still work.

I've tested this with fresh versions of 26.80.0203 and 26.80.0205 -> Problem.
Then I've tested it with a fresh version of 26.70.0604 -> No problem.

Can't reproduce.

Same issue.

I've tried 26.80.0200 and 26.80.0205.

After starting the program, if I double click folders, it goes inside and the tree expands.

But, if I right click ANY folder or ANY file ANYWHERE from within ANY drive (even local drives), the tree (including the 'chevron') for ALL my mapped network drives disappears until I restart XYplorer. It does this every single time making XYplorer completely unusable for me

Also, double clicking SOME files does the same thing, but I can't reproduce with all extensions. So far any extension associated with WinRAR does this, same for .nfo and .sfv. But, if I change the extension from .nfo to .txt and double click on the .txt file, the tree doesn't disappear.

Lastly, I can't always reproduce this if XYplorer has been running for some time (like a few minutes), but so far, on a fresh start it does this every single time for the examples mentioned above.

I was about to post in Lost Names of Mapped Network Drives with v26.80.0000. because I had the same problem with ALL the mount names being gone and reverted to the weird long name, but I noticed the last post mentioning:

Configuration | General | Safety Belts, Network | Network | Assume that mapped network drives are available

I unchecked it, restarted XYplorer, and not only this it fix the mount names issue, but it also fixed the tree disappearing issue I just posted about!

P.S. You also mentioned:

any custom names (which you don't seem to have) will be replaced by the generic names

Is there a reason for this? As all the names should be available even for offline drives in the registry under

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2\##SERVER#Mount#Point

as:

_LabelFromReg

Great. That works for me too. Thank you for this insight!

@ peterbonge and DeeLight:
Can you send your XYplorer.ini to support?

Can you send your XYplorer.ini to support?

Just sent it.

Got it. What shall I do to make the drive tree disappear?

[peterbonge]

Got it. What shall I do to make the drive tree disappear?

Just open a path of a mapped network drive and double-click or right-click a file.

[admin]

Did that. Nothing bad happens.

[peterbonge]

Did that. Nothing bad happens.

Somehow, I've expected that because here it also happens with a fresh version.
Isn't there an extended log function?

[admin]

You can look into the debug log with dlog; but I doubt there's much in it.

Exactly what I did in v26.80.0206.

[admin]

So we have two users with the mysterious disappearing mapped drive tree.

Is the mapped drive available and connected in that moment?

[DeeLight]

I just backed up

XYplorer.ini

so a fresh one is created.

I looked at the settings, and ☑ Assume that mapped network drives are available is enabled.

If I right click ANY folder in ANY drive (local or remote), ALL trees for remote drives disappear.

I've tried in a VMs as well with a fresh

XYplorer.ini

, and same behavior.

Edit:
1. 26.80.0206 fixed the mount naming problem!
2. All mapped drives are available and connected, I've re-tried it in .0206, and still same behavior.
