annoying popup checking path

Post by merc_slk »

As much I loved this program. Time to find another competitor. This popup "Checking path" is just a Pain in the B.tt. Even ESC to cancel doesn't help. It keeps on returning although no changes were made. Is there a way to switch it off? Hope someone of the creators or admin is still active on this forum. Seems to be very quiet.

Go: Options > Configuration > Drives
and disable all required Automatic refresh.
Also check [x] Do not refresh on activation of Salamander.

You will have to refresh manually if needed.

A refresh shows up only on slow drives or on networked drives with slow connections. Refresh on local drives is mostly instant and the dialog does not appear. You have not written what "paths" are being checked.

And please stop being pathetic about searching competitor. Nobody is forcing you to use Salamander. If it does not suit your needs, you can look for something which will.
