Has anyone else noticed that, too - or is it something with my environment. Or did I miss any options?
Record the gif and attach it to the bug report. You can also try the beta version.

Eh - that's weird. Suddenly paste is working again. Must have been another problem - or a temporary glitch in the time/space continuum... :whistle:

No such effect here.
I can still paste anything into the dialogs.
You should not set the option to always show the menu.

is this a suggestion for improvement?
Yes.
You can hide the Edit1 control with ControlHide before navigation and show the Edit1 control after navigation, just like Listary does.

Maybe most people can accept using the address bar, so it shouldn't matter.
I want to clarify: do you have a problem with the Edit field or is this a suggestion for improvement?

No, most don't use custom file dialogs including BandiZip which works just fine with QuickSwitch.

Have you tried disable AutoSwitch?
Norn wrote: 05 Apr 2025 13:37 There is some code on the AutoHotkey forum for virtual folders.
Its not hard to implement. But I deleted it, bc it not very useful. This app should be more versatile. Use "Short Path" option instead, its more customizable than RAF names.
I don't use AutoSwitch, I looked at your gif.

1. XYplorer :biggrin:, select a file, go to Edit >> Copy To >> Browse button.

2. This app uses even older one, which cannot be resized.

I think those two cover all (99%) of them types of "Browse for Folder" dialogs.
