Improvement of Plugin lists in the Configuration dialog

Post by *petermad »

If I have a combined 32bit + 64bit installation of TC, I find it inconvenient that I cannot see whether a plugin is installed for the version of TC that I am currently running. I cannot even see it from the file extension in the configuration list, because often the plugins are listed as for example .wlx even though there is only a .wlx64 file installed.

Here's obviously a subject for improvement. It would be nice if the lists in the configuration had a column that showed whether a listed plugin is available or not. At least for Lister, Content and File system plugins. (the list for Packer plugins is suited for this).

It would also be nice if it was possible to Disable (not Remove) the plugins (temporarily). Just a "Disable" button in the bottom of the list, and a column that shows whether the plugin is diabled or not.

Thumbs up for that.

The whole Plugin management within Total Commander could use a renovation.

But I think I'll create two separate threads for that.

At least this option is already supported by TC Plugins Manager which is much more flexible than the integrated one.

Yes, but TC Plugins Manager has not yet been updated for 64bit plugins AFAIK.
