Ini-settings
Settings in the file wincmd.ini
Most settings in Wincmd.ini can also be changed from dialog boxes. Very few settings can only be changed directly, either because they are not meant for the end user, or they are only a workaround to a specific problem.
Settings in the file wcx_ftp.ini
Settings for the FTP client are stored in the file wcx_ftp.ini.
Note: The two ini files are stored in the Windows directory, but the location can be changed using command line parameters. The location of the ini files can also be set in the registry. To do this, the location can be set either at installation time, or using the standalone program inireloc.exe, available on www.ghisler.com, Addons section.
Other usefull programs:
Tweak Total Commander (TweakTC)
TweakTC is designed for advanced configuration of Total Commander without manual editing its INI files.
For download see the Plugins -page.
Configuration
| [Configuration] | General settings |
| 1hourdif=0 | 1: Ignore time difference of exactly one hour when comparing files. This is useful when comparing between an NTFS and FAT volume (daylight saving time!). |
| ActiveRight=0 | 1: The right listbox will be active when Total Commander starts (1/0) |
| Aligned extension=1 | File extension is shown left aligned |
| Allowed= | Allowed drives -> restrict drive access! Example: Allowed=cde \ stands for 'Network Neighborhood' |
| AltSearch=0 | Search with 0=CTRL+ALT, 1=ALT, 2=letter only, 3=letter with search dialog, 4=disabled |
| AlwaysCopyInBackground=0 | If set to 1, Total Commander always copies in the background (32-bit version only) |
| AlwaysPackInBackground=0 | 1: zip in background 2: zip+external packers in background 3: like 2, but run external packers minimized |
| AlwaysToRoot=0 | If set to 1, Total Commander will always switch to the root directory when changing drives (like the Win95/98 Explorer). |
| AlwaysUnpackInBackground=0 | 1: unzip in background 2: unzip+external unpackers in background 3: like 2, but run external unpackers minimized |
| AppendWarning=1 | If set to 0, Total Commander will not show a warning before appending to a file |
| AutoInstallPlugins=1 | If set to 0, auto-installation of plugins when entering plugin archive is disabled |
| Autotreechange=0 | If set to 1, a single click on a directory in tree view switches to that directory in the other window. |
| BriefViewWidthLimit= | Sets a maximum width limit (in pixels) for a column in brief view |
| BrushForCursor=0 | Set this option to 1, if Total Commander leaves behind a trail of frames around the not selected files when moving the cursor (bug in graphics card). |
| CdCloseDoor=1 | If change drives to a CD-rom fails, try to close the CD drawer (only 32-bit version). Can be disabled with CdCloseDoor=0 |
| CmdUpDown=0 | Move cursor up/down in file list even if the active window is the command line (1/0) |
| CmtOemFont=0 | Use OEM (DOS) character set in descript.ion files (only recommended if you use the tool 4dos or 4nt). |
| ColorFilters=0 | Enable/disable colors by file type |
| CompareCaseSensitive=0 | 1: Compare by content sensitive to upper-/lowercase letters 0: Ignore (a and A considered as equal) |
| CompareIgnoreRepSpace=1 | 1: Ignore different number of spaces, e.g. "a b" is the same as "a b" 0: Detect different number of spaces as a difference |
| CompareVertical=0 | 1: Show compare by content windows above each other 0: Side by side |
| CopyComments=6 | This is a combination (sum) of the following flags: 1: Default comment type is files.bbs |
| CopyStreams=0 | 1: NTFS streams will be copied 0: NTFS streams will be ignored |
| CopyBlockSize=32 | Sets block size for copying (in kbytes=1024 bytes). Default and minimum is 32 (=32768 bytes). |
| CopyHugeBlockSize= | Sets the block size when copying very large files. The files will be read and written directly, bypassing the disk cache. Minimum size is 10MB. Only files larger than this block size will be copied this way. For smaller files, CopyBlockSize will be used. By default, without this entry in the INI file, this feature is turned off. |
| CopyBlockSizeOther=32 | Sets the block size for copying between drives on different physical disks. It's better to use a smaller block size when copying between different disks, because both disks can read/write at the same time. A single disk has to jump between source and target file when copying, so a large block size is better. |
| CopyHugeBlockSizeOther= | Sets the block size when copying very large files, between different disks. Minimum: 256 kB. Recommended values (try others yourself): |
| SamePartitions=drives,drives | Allows to set, which logical drives (partitions) belong to the same harddisk. Example: You have two harddisks, one with drives C,E and F, and the other with D, G and H. The entry has to be SamePartitions=CEF,DGH
When copying between E and F (same physical disk) the first two values will be used, when copying between C and D (different disk) the values with 'Other' in the name. |
| CountMarked=1 | 1: Count files in subdirs before copying/ deleting to allow a second percent bar 0: Do not count files (faster) |
| CountSpace=1 | 1: Count files when selecting with spacebar 0: Do not count files (faster) |
| DeleteDelay=0 | Total Commander (32 bit only) waits the specified amount of time (in milliseconds) after deleting a file to recycle bin. Try to increase this value (default is 0) if you experience crashes when Cleansweep for windows is running. |
| DeviceChange=1 | 1= react to wm_devicechange messages (to detect disk changes) 0= ignore |
| DirBrackets=1 | Show square brackets around directories (1/0, default=1) |
| DriveisCD=FGH | Define drives F, G and H as CD-ROM drives. When copying from these drives, Total Commander will not copy the read only attribute. Useful for network CD drives which are not detected automatically. |
| DriveTipDelay=0 | Delay in milliseconds, until descriptions for the drives in the drive combo box are shown (default = 0) |
| Editor=notepad.exe | Default editor for F4 |
| ExplorerForCopy=0 | Use built-in copy function (more flexible) or Explorer (copy+paste) for F5 and F6 (0/1) |

| Noreread2=AB\ | Do not reread these drives when closing and restarting Total Commander. If noreread2 is missing, the contents of noreread= will be used, which leads to the same behaviour as in TC versions older than 6.52. Example: Noreread=ABC\ and Noreread2=AB\ : Don't auto-reread floppies, drive c and the net, but remember directories on C when closing and re-opening Total Commander. |
