Error in rename function

[ovg]

Hello, David!
I've found a bug in rename function when option display_full_path_name is set to 1

Code: Select all

display_full_path_name=1

In this case full path will be added before name.
Before: C:\My Documents\test.txt
After: C:\My Documents\CMy Documentstest.txt
It doesn't matter how you rename a file - inline or via context menu. (x64 only)
In x32 only inline renaming doesn't work.
It is impossible to rename a file at all - each time a full path will be added ....

Everything 1.4.1.895 x64/ Windows 7 SP1

[void]

Thanks for the bug report.

This bug was introduced in 888.
Everything will strip all invalid filename characters.

Fixed in Everything 1.4.1.896.

With Everything 1.4.1.895, Renaming C:\My Documents\test.txt to test2.txt without the path part will work.

I don't use this feature much, is it useful to display the full path and filename when renaming, or should only the name part be used when display_full_path_name is enabled?

Hello, David!
Thank you for fix!

..is it useful to display the full path and filename when renaming, or should only the name part be used when display_full_path_name is enabled?

IMHO only name part would be enough.
