Total Commander 10.00 beta 8 available

Beta 8 can now store filters (eg *.txt) separately for each tab.Other than that it mainly fixes bugs. Below are the new functions in Total Commander 10.00 (beta test):

General:

• Directories created by MacOS on ExFAT flash drives are now shown in TC. They were not shown because they had the invlid attribute 8: Volume label
• Always show hidden directory “AppData” in c:Users even with hidden files disabled
• Allow user to install key file automatically when double clicking on it.
• Add a “Zone Transfer” data stream when downloading files via anonymous FTP (Ctrl+F), or HTTP (Ctrl+N) from outside the intranet, like web browsers
• When unpacking files internally or via plugins, copy “Zone Transfer” data stream from archive to unpacked files, just like the Explorer
• New zone transfer option can be disabled via WantZoneData=0
• Always look for key file also in c:totalcmd, even if Total Commander is installed elsewhere

User interface:

• Allow to use “Windows Hello” on Windows 10 to securely store master password until TC is closed. Use fingerprint, face or pin to connect again
• Use mouse wheel to scroll through directory tabs (like in Firefox) when not using multi-line tabs
• Zoom thumbnails with Ctrl+Mouse wheel between 10% and 200% of the size configured in Configuration – Options – Thumbnails
• Load thumbnails from EXIF ​​data (preview image) from JPG and various camera RAW formats: Canon RAW 1-3, DNG, Fuji, Nikon, Olympus, Panasonic, Pentax, Sony
• New option “Return to locked tab root directory on tab change” in Configuration – Options – Folder tabs
• Show “!” prefix when current dir differs from locked dir on tabs which are locked with directory changes allowed
• New option to only execute command line when it is focused (Configuration – Options – Layout)
• When closing TC while there are unpacked temporary files, show the user the first 3 file names and their origin
• Drop file from outside (eg virtual folder in Explorer) to read only directory (eg c:windows): Better dialogs to allow overwrite and copy as admin

Saving settings:

• When user cannot save settings (eg in Configuration menu or main settings), offer to copy ini files to user profile
• For plugins in write protected directories, intercept calls to CreateFileA/W and all INI functions, and redirect write calls to %APPDATA%GHISLERredirect

• Preload DirectVobSub filter if the source filter has a pin “Subtitle”
• Allow to use LAV filters and ffdshow filters without installing them, by putting them in subdir filter32 or filter64, respectively
• Save last playback position of the last played tracks longer than 10 minutes
• Keep sound pitch constant when changing playback speed, using custom DirectShow filter based on open source SoundTouch.dll

• Allow to use regular expressions and saved searches, with options where to apply them, eg one side, both sides, etc. via button [1x]
