Do you get this problem regularly? If yes, please contact me for a special test version (beta at ghisler com).

Anyone else who get this problem regularly should contact me too!

[Hurdet]

No, I only happened once that I remember .

[ghisler(Author)]

Di you remember wether the first folder where it stopped working contained any kind of symbolic links (junctions, reparse points)? TC shows them with <LNK> instead of <DIR> in the size column.

For example, the folders under c:\users are full of such links...

[Hurdet]

In fact when it is occours, i'm testing junction and hardlink but now it is work also with junction in XP.

[Hurdet]

This morning I happened again , but I can not reproduce the error . TCM I rebooted and went back to work.

[ghisler(Author)]

Do you remember which was the first directory where the size wasn't shown any more? If no, try to check it the next time it happens. Please also check whether it contains any hard links.

[Hurdet]

it contains any hard links but perhaps it happens when I use a RamDisk.

Please try it with Total Commander 7.57a release candidate 1:
http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=242914

If the fix works, I will add it also to TC8 beta, therefore please test it with TC 7.57a!

I'm using the code from TC 7.56a now (with slight changes only) to check for infinite loops, so it will not catch all of them. However, it should at least no longer stop. Since I cannot reproduce the problem myself, I cannot guarantee that it will work. Therefore I have added some code to detect where exactly it hangs.

Please add the following string to the file wincmd.ini, section [Configuration]:
DebugIconThread=1

You can edit the wincmd.ini via Configuration - Change settings files directly.

When it starts to hang, you can go to the temp directory with
cd %TEMP%
and look at the file tcicolog.txt. It's a log file of the icon thread and related operations in the foreground thread.

Now folder size not work.
I have added DebugIconThread=1 but it not hang and not create tcicolog.txt

When i execute folder size, it change <DIR> column in blank.

And to confirm, you used 7.57a_rc1 in the link above?

[Hurdet]

not, i used 8.0b22
i like 8 because it rename with button click without keyboard.

[Jon Canale]

But the point in Christian's message to you is that he added code to fix your problem in 7.57a_rc1, and he wanted to know if the code in 7.57a_rc1 fixed your problem. He has not added the fix the 8.0 beta yet, so naturally, there was no change in your experience.

ALT-SHIFT-ENTER works fine

Code: Select all

calc size: C:\Users\Sidji\AppData\Local\Temp\swtlib-32

Code: Select all
