Not really. All I can do is "train" TC to show the virtual folder faster, by hovering the menu entries several times. But it only lasts until I click in one of the file panels, whereafter it is bad again. It actually seems even slower in TC 8 - easily up to 20 to 30 seconds or more to show a virtual folder, and often the folder "Libraries" is recognized as empty even though it is not (it contains the standard content installed by win 7 - I don't use them).
The whole thing seems to me to have something to do with focus. If I hover the breadcrumb down-arrow (BreadcrumbDelayButton=-250), it will usually take 20 seconds for the breadcrumb menu to open (40 seconds in the 64bit version), but if I after hovering the down-arrow quickly move the cursor up to one of the drive buttons (has to be another drive than the current), and then move it back, the the breadcrumb menu opens immediately in the 32 bit version (7.x and 8.x).
If I do the same in the 64bit version I get this:
Code: Select all

Usually in the 32bit version when I hover a virtual folder in the breadcrumb menu I can shorten the wait by clicking in the file panel.
If I do that in the 64bit version I get this:

The breadcrumb menu seems to live a life of its own as a separate window. If for example I get tired of waiting for a virtual folder to open and click the close button in the upper right corner to close TC, then I have to click to times - one to give TC focus and one to activate the button. (That will give the same access violation as the one just above, when I do it in the 64bit version).
In the x64 version when I am waiting for a virtual folder to open I can actually see that there are two windows open by hovering TC's icon in the taskbar - the breadcrumb menu is labeled "PathSelForm" - see

In the 64bit version during one of the Access violations the breadcrumb menu stayed on the screen independently of TC see:

When I get these access violations in the x64 version, I cannot kill TC by choosing "No" to "Continue execution"
