Pseudo environment variables not working?

[jslegers]

Hello,

I'm trying the new pseudo environment variables. If have made DirMenu options for test :

[DirMenu]
menu1=Documents
cmd1=cd %$PERSONAL%
menu2=-
menu3=Downloads
cmd3=cd %Downloads%
menu4=Temp
cmd4=cd %TEMP%
menu5=Favorites
cmd5=cd %Favorites%

The downloads and favorites don't work. Is this a know issue? I'm testing it on Windows 10 64Bit 1709 Build 16299.192

Please try %$DOWNLOADS% and %$FAVORITES%.

Example:

FOLDERID_Favorites
Default Path %USERPROFILE%\Favorites

So do you have: %USERPROFILE%\Favorites ?



Try pasting '%USERPROFILE%\Favorites' into the path box of the file list...

That was it. Thanks.

When I try this, if the first letter of the psuedo environment variable is lowercase, it is not recognized. The case of the rest of the string doesn't matter - only the first character has to be uppercase.

Is this because of Windows, or TC?

For example:
Works:
cd %$Personal%
cd %$PERSONAL%
cd %$PeRsOnAl%

Doesn't work:
cd %$personal%
cd %$pERSONAL%

TC. By design.
