I have changed Configuration/Settings/View/Edit to Program Files/Notepad++. Therefore when I press F3/F4 Notepad++ is activated instead of Windows Notepad.
However when I double click on any text file to open and View/Edit, the windows Notepad is activated. I want this also to change to Notepad++.
Please help.
Thank you in advance.
I am sorry I did not know one has to subscribe.
Now I did.
Thanks Sir.
Previously members of this forum were informed of new releases. This has stopped now.
Please resume service of informing members of new releases.
Thank you.
I did some homework on this issue by moving complete directory (2.32gb) 3-4 times and here are results.
For the fist time warning message come up "Directory not empty" and JM shut without moving rest of source files. Then I UN-ticked Shell. Second time I found that the following files needed confirmation to delete when moving tut the move kept on after confirmation :
desktop.ini
index.dat
Then I again ticked Shell and moved again. This time it again asked above confirmation but kept moving.
Thank you
Thanks Sir.
Sir,
I have JM Port installed on 10+ computers. I have many customized settings for JM, and I need to keep all computers updated with these settings very often.
What files I should take backup and store them in a backup directory for restoration on various computers.
Thank you.
nleontiev Sir,
I did not have time to test it because the directories involved are very large, but I will share my results when I test it in a day or two Sir.
Thank you.
Sir, I was away for a while so I did not test as you directed.
Will test then report.
Thank you.
Oh one more sir,
After copying files when the source directory is chosen to delete, again JM displays same warning and shuts down.
Thank you.
I find there are topics posted in Russian or other languages too.
This forum is very informative therefore in order to learn more about JM also not to duplicate topics, iis there any default option to read other language topics in English (or vice verso).
Thank you.
I have some directories/files pertaining to settings for Firefox Thunderbird etc.
These directories/files contain characters like {1BC9BA34-1EED-42ca-A505-6D2F1A935BBB}{d37dc5d0-431d-44e5-8c91-49419370caa1} etc.
When I copy mother backup directory to other drive, it works fine. All directories/files are copied.
When I move a warning message comes up "Directory not empty" and JM shuts without moving these as well rest of files in source directory.
This is happening in JM only not in other File Managers.
Thank you
JM installer file is named as JustManagerSetup.exe for all releases.
Perhaps it would be better if they were named something like Just Manager 0.1 Alpha 30.exe in order to know which version is locally stored also to retain more than one version on local drive.
Thank you.
Yes, double dots item ".." cannot be selected, it's by design.
Sir, I agree to what you say only because I consider you expert on this. To me it more looks confusing, when i walk up by mouse or up key from file to file and when I reach top, suddenly the momentum is lost. The visual display then stops telling me my current location. Moreover, I still have doubts on your comments that "double dots item ".." cannot be selected'" for the fact that I must select that line, maybe not to move delete copy etc. but surely I have to select that line to go up directory.
JM is the only file manager which is different on this from any other.
Please do not take my words as arrogance because I express only my reactions on this.
Now that I know this is a design issue, I must forget this issue.
Thank you once again Sir, for explaining it so beautifully.
Background color changes to blue from white when I move down or up but when I move to top (to .. line), the color stays white which is confusing.
I think when at top of panel at up-dir line (.. line on top) it also should change to blue.
Thank you.
JM is much more user friendly, specific, down to earth, easy to work, better appearance, simpler customization options, much faster response, wonderful support, extremely lightweight and easier update options, compared to all above.
Is is due to the fact that JM has truly expert documentation and 'NO JUNK' theory or something else.
JM directory size is smaller, compared to TC for example, becuase JM has less functionality then others, doesn't support archives, utility for file operations under admin rights, updater, 32x32 icon pack, e.t.c.
Sir, after using JM I get fascinated everyday on all the above counts and many more. Therefore, being an admirer of JM, I had posted this topic for my academics.
I was expecting a more descriptive answer with regards to user friendly, specific, wonderful support, down to earth, easy to work, better appearance, simpler customization options, much faster response and easier update.
Sir, you explained only on comparative size due to some missing features, which I think are not used by 95% of their users.
Anyway, thank you for responding Sir.
Thank you nleontiev Sir.
To close tab you can double-click or mouse wheel click on tab. Also, is common for file managers.
I never knew this. It is much better than what I suggested.
Thank you nleontiev Sir.
This is with reference to option :
Configuration\Settings\Display\Size Format.
1. mb and gb should be added to existing options b and kb, Keeping 'Auto' alive.
2. Display should have option to toggle show/hide B KB MB MB in file size display.
Thank you
Other than JM, I have the following file managers installed.

Presently Tabs are closed by right click on Tab and remove, new tabs can be started by Cntl+T.
I have two suggestions on this :
1. To start a new Tab, beside right of the present Tabs on Tab Bar, one '+' sign similar to Firefox or Thunderbird etc. in addition to the present Cntl+T shortcut.
2. To close a Tab, a 'x' sign on Tabs(right) in addition to right click on Tab and remove is preferred as in above applications.
This is more user friendly and will give more power to JM.
I DID IT !
Thank you nleontiev Sir.
Downloaded http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25694176/Temp/JustManager.exe and tested, same results.
The last line on Log.Txt says :
"11/12/12 23:11 <<<ERROR>>> CUtils::ExecuteCommand, error: 00000002, op: open, cmd: C:\Windows\Notepad.exe, params: "C:\Dev\FM.Txt", path: C:\Dev
11/12/12 23:11 Command exists: 0, file exists: 0"
My Cmd.Exe and Notepad.Exe location is E:Windows not C:\Windows
Only Log file posted.
Thank you.

Problem occurs only in C:\Download directory?
Notepad.exe exists in C:\Windows directory?
For some reason, system function ShellExecute returns ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND when trying to open Notepad with your file C:\Download\0021.Txt as parameter.
Sir,
I have three partitions.
C:\ is working drive where downloads, applications and file processing is done. Downloaded or final processed files are moved to D:\
D:\ is data storage drive which holds all types of pictures, movies, software, data and finally processed files.
E:\ is small exclusive system drive where there are only three directories, Docs&Sttgs, Program Files and Windows. I never go to E:\ except to access system files.
I have tried to open/edit file by JM on D:\ and E:\ but same results. Until recently JM was all right both Shift+F4 or F4 were working. Only recently stopped working.
I also have Speed Commander, Total Commander and Gyula's Navigator, among a few other file managers. They also use Notepad. I checked it works all right on all drives..
Thank you.
I downloaded http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25694176/Temp/JustManager.exe but I am sorry NO Change. I strongly suspect this is due to some corruption in Settings.Xml.
I am copying below my Log.Txt also Settings.Xml
Thank you Sir.

OK. Can you test problem on fresh portable installation?
Sir,
I have JM Portable installed which has many personalized settings. I first installed JM Portable by overwriting on my existing installation. There was no change. Same errors existed.
Then I installed JM Portable on different location which did not contain Settings.xml. Same errors existed.
Shift+F4 or F4 - Both keys opens error window 'Cannot perform this command'. After closing error window the file is created. However the newly created file is not opened automatically for edit.
Thank you.
