1. Make on right panel Tree view
2. Alt+F2 (drive combo), Enter (select default drive)

Crash

WinXP SP2, TC 7.0

Confirmed, XP SP2, TC7 Final

Confirmed too. I assume this is related to the empty default entry in the dirvecombo when using the classic tree. Maybe ENTER could be ignored if this 'pseudo-entry' is the active one...

Hello Alexeï !

• I cannot reproduce it here with Xp-Pro SP1 (French)

- I get the list of the drive, and the previous display mode is restored (here : Full)
- I have set the old tree view.
- I tried with one separate tree, no problem, it works.
- Detail : Here, the drive list is NOT displayed usually, but it appears from the short cut.

- It seems that the address of the error is not a TC one…

Hm, I get the Access violation here also when the drive combobox is not displayed. It appears on ALT+F2, and if I press ENTER without selecting a drive first, BAM! This occurs also when the tree is in the left panel and using ALT+F1.

Heres the address on my system, if it could be of any help:

Access violation at address 005D10BB. Read of address 00000002.

Confirmed. The problem might be, that no drive is selected in the combo list and TC assumes a valid return.

It's reproduced only with:
OldStyleTree=0

Hi, Alextp, hi, Clo, hi, all.

Maybe it is related to WinXP Sp1 vs. WinXP Sp2?

Reason for this assumption:
+ Here: WinXP Pro Sp1 German, TC7 final
+ OldStyleTree=0
+ Both separate folder trees are enabled
+ Cannot reproduce the error just like Clo.

Maybe it is related to the fact that my drive combos are enabled?
Maybe I am just not following the right steps to reproduce the crash?

Kind regards,
Karl

P.S.:
Reviewing the screenshot given in the first post confirmed StickyNomad's words, i.e. I did do it the wrong way.

No need to test this all, a betatester said that this will be fixed.

Alextp is right.
And this issue did affect only the 'classic' CRL+F8-tree, not the seperateTrees.

Indeed it has been fixed in a non-public beta now. The problem was that with the new tree starting at the Desktop, there is no longer an active drive which could be shown in the Alt+F1/Alt+F2 comboboxes. This is new in TC7. However, TC still expected to receive a valid drive from this box, so when it received an empty string, the check for the drive letter went into "empy space"...

As stated on the beta-forum, the bug is fixed in 7.01.
