[TC 11.01RC1] After creating the files and positioning the cursor, an error window appears

[white]

Ghisler's statement earlier meant he did fix it already:

The function returns FALSE because there was no directory change. When I change this to TRUE, then there is no problem.

[Fla$her]

I understood this as checking the operation of a function that expects TRUE. Does this mean that TRUE will remain in case of an error? This answer doesn't clarify this.

Ghisler's second post clarified it and I just clarified it.

[Fla$her]

No, that's not the answer to my question. This is just a guess (about fix).

It will now return TRUE when the name exists and represents a file. You will still get an error when the name after "cd" doesn't exist, or when it's a folder but the cd command fails.

Well, you actually described the second point. That's what we need.

[ghisler(Author)]

This should be fixed in Total Commander 11.01 RC2, please try it!

The example in topic start seems to be fixed, but is it normal that it doesn't work if the path after the cd command isn't quoted? Is it also normal that setting a filter using the cd command (cd *.txt) doesn't work?

Yes, see:

You can also place one or more of Total Commander's internal menu commands here comma-separated. Just click on the button with the magnifying glass and choose a command from the dialog box "Choose command".
Can be combined with cd command (change directory) with the path in double quotes.
Example for multiple commands: cd "c:\windows",cm_SelectAll,cm_Copy

21.08.23 Fixed: cd Filename in button bar combined with other commands would correctly place the cursor on Filename, but report an error (32/64)

Confirmed fixed in TC 11.01rc2

Thanks, so the question remains why cd "c:\windows\*.txt" doesn't work when using multiple commands.

[ghisler(Author)]

Thanks for confirming the fix!

Thanks, so the question remains why cd "c:\windows\*.txt" doesn't work when using multiple commands.

Sorry, setting filters isn't currently supported. Maybe in a later version.

Confirmed that cd "*.txt" (cd used to set a file mask) does not work for multi-commands.

If this cannot be fixed, it should be mentioned in the Help that wildcards cannot be used with cd for multiple commands.

[ghisler(Author)]

cd *.txt and "cd *.txt" never worked in the command line (also not in TC 10.52 and older), only as a single command on a button. The multi-command handler uses the cd function from the command line, so cd "*.txt" isn't supported there either. I will add a note to the help.

[Fla$her]

Bring back the topic, please.
The bug is not fixed on the x32 version. Moreover, no files are created, only one test_[C].txt is created without a number.
