CD-Tree is incomplete after re-scanning
Hi, the directory tree in the CD search window (Alt-F10) does not update when I create new directories. Re-scanning is also unreliable and omits folders (system or non-sytem equally). Although by far most are found, I sometimes need to rescan more than once to find all. Is there a limit on the number of folders that TC can list?? The tree window (Ctrl-F8) does update, though.

Yes, the update is currently limited to tree files smaller than 2 MB. But you can increase this limit:
From the help, wincmd.ini, [configuration] section:
TreeUpdateLimit=2048
Size (in kBytes), up to which the tree file treeinfo.wc will be updated automatically during file operations like copying or deleting. This update would take a long time for very large trees.
From the help, wincmd.ini, [configuration] section:
TreeUpdateLimit=2048

CD Tree
Hi Christian, thank you for the quick reply. In my wincmd.ini there is currently not TreeUpdateLimit entry, which I interpret as unlimited, is that correct? Shouldn't re-scanning update it correctly then? Does the immediate updating when I create/delete folders have the same limits as the re-scanning from the CD Tree search window?

No, the default is 2048, which is 2 MBytes. Try adding a new line to your wincmd.ini under [Configuration], e.g.
TreeUpdateLimit=10000
TreeUpdateLimit=10000
