After mouse over on FDD drive icon, drive trying read data

Post by *BORG52 »

Hi,
after each mouse move over physical FDD drive icon(expanded drives bar), drive automaticaly trying read data (mechanics clicks,buzzes - It is annoying)

This behavior can not be changed by program menu(wincmd.ini)
Previous version of TCMD work correctly - FDD is quiet, after mouse over.

Hm, I can guess that TC tries to read volume label to show tooltip... So it is strange that it haven't do so in previous versions (you can extract and rename TOTALCMD.exe from older installer for test BTW).

But I can't test it because no FDD is installed into my PC.

I can confirm the bug, and that it's annoying. TC 8.52a uses the same label for floppy drives as in the drive list, TC9 tries to retrieve the label instead. The bug is already present in 9.0 beta4 (didn't test previous betas).

You can turn off labels in Configuration - Options - Display. TC only gets the label when it hasn't been loaded yet.

That's not a solution to the problem. TC8 shows the labels just fine and uses 3½" as label for my floppy drive (the same text as in drive list), so everything works as expected: labels for regular drives and a placeholder for floppies.

TC9 tries to retrieve the label, which fails for empty drives. TC shouldn't try to get labels for floppy drives, because they're either empty or slow.
