Lister (F3) freeze on opening menu bar, TC crashes

Post by *matyibacsi »

I have a LISTER problem, I can't say since which TC version (9.x, 10x. 11.x ???)

1.) I open the LISTER (F3 key) on a text file
2.) Go over with mouse to the menu bar and click on it to open (e.g."options")
3.) menu opens but it freezes immediately
4.) TC crashes within one second to desktop

I could imageine that it may be (may be not) has something to do with:
- my triple monitor setup with Nvidia surround, and/or
- scaling the fonts in windows to 150%

I had this problem on my old PC with windows 10 and now I installed a new PC with windows 11 but the problem is just the same.

Does it happen if you use a fresh wincmd.ini file?

Does it happen if you open without plugins by pressing Alt+Shift+F3 ?

My problem is that there isn't any function to query whether a specific file or file type is blocked or not.

Does it happen when you view a file with Alt+Shift+F3 too? Or only when viewing it with F3?

If you use Total Commander 64-bit, could you try with 32-bit instead (and vice versa)?
