Solved [TV 8.0b3 x64] \w added to pluginbasedir when installing

Post by *petermad »

The pluginbasedir setting in wincmd.ini gets \w added when installing plugins.

My registry data:

Code: Select all

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ghisler\Total Commander]
"IniFileName"=".\\wincmd.ini"
"FtpIniName"=".\\wcx_ftp.ini"
"InstallDir"="c:\\totalcmd"
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start with clean wincmd.ini
2. Start installing a plugin - for example https://plugins.ghisler.com/plugins64/wdx_dirsizecalc_2.20.zip
3. Answer yes to the suggested location: C:\totalcmd\plugins\wdx\DirSizeCalc
4. Finish the installation.
3. Check the pluginbasedir setting in wincmd.ini - it now shows C:\totalcmd\plugins\w

Hence the next plugin-install will be in the wrong directory.

It happens when installing all four kinds of plugins.

I followed the steps and can confirm the problem. In my case TC is in C:\Program Files\TotalCmd\ and after I installed the plugin I had in my test_wincmd.ini:
pluginbasedir=C:\Program Files\TotalCmd\plugins\w

WinXP x64, TC 8.0β3 x64.
