Double-clicking folder when delete dialogue is shown will open Windows File Explorer
Posted: 23 Jul 2024 13:49
This is not really a serious bug, but maybe still worth taking a look at?
When a Windows delete dialogue is open after attempting to delete a file/folder from the XYplorer context menu, double clicking a folder in the tab pane will open a Windows File Explorer window to that folder. Double clicking the background to navigate up in the folder structure does work as expected. And so does navigating the folder structure in the tree pane.
How to replicate:
1.1) Make sure to have "Display delete confirmation dialogue" activated in the Windows "Recycle Bin Properties".
1.2) Have "Show the 64-bit context menu" activated in the XYplorer options.
1.3) Make sure you have a file and a subfolder inside the current folder.
2) Attempt to delete the file by "right-clicking > Delete", but don't confirm or cancel the deletion.
3) Double-click the subfolder mentioned in 1.3.
Expected result: XYplorer should navigate to the subfolder.
Actual result: Windows File Explorer opens to the subfolder.
While this bug seems peculiar and non-critical, other actions performed from the XYplorer context menu or other XYplorer elements might trigger it too.
Edit: This is on v26.30. I tried beta versions back to 24.50.0003, but didn't go back further. So, I don't know if the bug always existed or if it was introduced at some point.
