How can I get out from the attached awkwardness? I am not aware how I got into it, and I did not find any specification for, say, "PIF" in any of those *.ini files. Yet, across all my Total Commander installation on different machines, since I am sourcing all those setting-files through a Dropbox folder, they all show me this restricted view.

Any help is much appreciated Also, if this restricted view is triggered by a menu item, I am interested to learn how to remove such menu item, or to disable its shortcut trigger.
Thanks a lot!

Re: Trouble with restricted file-type View
A custom view is displayed in the image (menu "Show" - "Custom... Ctrl+F12").
2. type in: *.*
3. Press "OK"
This switches back to the normal view.
1. Press Ctrl+F12Menu 'Help' - 'Keyboard wrote:CTRL+F12 Show user defined files
2. type in: *.*
3. Press "OK"
This switches back to the normal view.

Re: Trouble with restricted file-type View
The view is "Show Programs" by pressing Ctrl-F11 (to be exact)
Just press Ctrl-F10 to reset the view to "All files"

Re: Trouble with restricted file-type View
Thank you guys, this is super helpful! The following menu items helped solved my problem:
Show ==> All Files
A follow up question: can I disable/delete the keyboard mapping for Ctrl-F11 (or Ctrl-F12)?

Re: Trouble with restricted file-type View
No, but under "Configuration" - "Options..." - "Misc." - "Redefine hotkeys (Keyboard remapping)"
you can reassign the shortcuts - for other purposes.
In the field "Command:" simply click on the magnifying glass...
An assignment/reassignment of function keys is also very suitable for self-created em_commands.
EDIT:
In the file "WCMD_ENG.MNU" I would adjust the lines 104 and 106 accordingly.
It is best to make a copy of the file, because with every update/upgrade this file will be overwritten,
i.e. the adjustment should take place immediately after each update/upgrade.
Re: Trouble with restricted file-type View
Confirm that editing the WCMD_ENG.MNU file helped. More details goes as follows:
On my machine, this file is stored as "C:\Program Files\totalcmd\LANGUAGE\WCMD_ENG.MNU"
After the change, on line 104 ==> MENUITEM "&Programs", cm_srcexecs
After the change, on line 106 ==> MENUITEM "&Custom...", cm_srcuserdef
