Other virtual folders
Even if the desired virtual folder does not participate in this list, please proceed as follows:
- Guarantee that the setting: Save on exit: Directories is activated
- Navigate into your desired virtual folder manually
- Close Total Commander
- Start Total Commander
- The virtual folder should be opened as well
- Menu: Call Configuration: Change Settings Files Directly
- In the main settings file (usually Wincmd.ini) look for [ Left ] or [ right ] depending in which side the folder was opened.
- In this section there is the entry "Path".
- This value must be copied now straght behind the command "cd " into the desired navigation element.
Pseudo environment variables
In version 6.5 of Total Commander numerous differently pseudo environment variables were introduced. Environment variables are in the registration already existing assignments between names and locations. In the following list the actually supported pseudo environment variables are specified.
cd %COMMANDER_PATH% cd %$MYPICTURES% cd %$LOCAL_APPDATA% cd %$APPDATA% cd %$DESKTOP% cd %$PERSONAL% cd %$PROGRAMS% cd %$STARTMENU% cd %$FONTS% cd %$STARTUP% cd %$COMMON_APPDATA% cd %$COMMON_DESKTOPDIRECTORY% cd %$COMMON_DOCUMENTS% cd %$COMMON_PROGRAMS% cd %$COMMON_STARTMENU% cd %$COMMON_STARTUP% cd %$COMMON_PICTURES%
By using these commands one is able to navigate from each place fast and secure to their locations. Pseudo environment variables can be combined without problems with subordinated directories.
cd %$APPDATA%\Opera
For environment variables with the same name lowercase letters are to be used.
