The Windows registry is used by Total Commander for a limited amount of settings. These settings are related to things like the installation folder, filenames of configuration files, interface restrictions, sound scheme, Total Commander license, AutoPlay handler, uninstall information.
Total Commander's associate feature also utilizes the registry since it is meant to change system-wide associations (unlike the internal associations).
Main settings
Total Commander's main registry settings are:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ghisler\Total Commander HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Ghisler\Total Commander HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Ghisler\Total Commander | ||
| Value name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| FtpIniName | String | Specifies the path and filename of the FTP configuration file wcx_ftp.ini. |
| IniFileName | String | Specifies the path and filename of the main configuration file wincmd.ini. |
| InstallDir | String | Specifies the installation folder of Total Commander. |
| Key | Binary | Contains a Total Commander license. |
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Ghisler\Total Commander\Configuration HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Ghisler\Total Commander\Configuration HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Ghisler\Total Commander\Configuration | ||
| Value name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| RestrictInterface | DWORD (32-bit) | Controls interface restrictions for users. |
Sound scheme
Total Commander can add its own sound scheme to Windows to customize audio feedback. This is achieved by changing the Windows registry. Here's how you can instruct Total Commander to do this:
- Select menu option: Configuration/Options
- Select category: Misc
- Under Custom sounds, click the Configure button.
(Settings are added to the registry even if you click Cancel in the next dialog.)
Added registry entries
The following entries are added to the registry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd] @="Total Commander" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdConnected] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdCopyComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdDeleteComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdPackComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdSearchComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdTransferComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Wincmd\WincmdUnpackComplete] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdConnected] @="Connected (FTP)" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdCopyComplete] @="Copy/Move complete" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdDeleteComplete] @="Delete complete" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdPackComplete] @="Pack complete" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdSearchComplete] @="Search complete" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdTransferComplete] @="Transfer complete" [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\EventLabels\WincmdUnpackComplete] @="Unpack complete"
AutoPlay handler
TcUsbRun.exe, included with Total Commander, enables (un)installation of an AutoPlay handler in the registry. This enables the user to choose between running Total Commander as a client or server when a USB cable is connected. (A list of supported USB cables for use with Total Commander can be found here.)

Remove sound scheme
