GO to root directory behaviour with Locked tab

Post by *sujanlal »

When I use the CTRL+\ from Locked, but directory changes allowed tab, it does not return to root directory, rather it returns to the locked tab directory.
For example, I have Locked, but directory changes allowed tab to d:\test1\test2\test3. Now I am in d:\test1\test2\test3\test4\test5 in that tab. When I use CTRL+\, it returns to d:\test1\test2\test3. Is there any way to return to d: drive?

Thanks.

You can do like I did:
1. wincmd.ini, [Configuration], LockedGoToDriveRoot=1, so Ctrl+\ will go to drive root instead of locked dir.
2. Configuration, Misc, assign some shortcut for cm_GoToLockedDir command (I use Ctrl+Shift+\) to go to locked dir.

Actually you need to set LockedGoToDriveRoot=1 to go to the drive root with Ctrl+\ on locked tabs. LockedGoToDriveRoot=0 is for the current behaviour (go to the locked tab root).

You're right, my mistake. I copied LockedGoToDriveRoot=0 from help instead of copying LockedGoToDriveRoot=1 from wincmd.ini.
