Subfolders Bug?

I just return to an old version of your program. With that I can drag a folder (to see the dimension) and the program show me just that single folder and not the subfolders too.

In the latest version of you program, I can't do it.

Can you tell me how to do it, please? Because I tried with different settings and I cannot reach my goal.

Thank you.

Which program version on what operating system are you using?

I have just tried it again with the current version on Windows, it works for me: With the filter "Search subfolders" on, subfolders are added when dragging a folder. With this option off, subfolders are not added when dragging a folder.

Window 10, 64 bit.

I just downloaded again the latest version of FilelistCreatorWin64.zip.

Now,... I extract the zip file, launch the app, reset the settings, choose Folders in the "include" menu, choose "filter" and uncheck "search subfolders", the I save the settings in the "Settings" menu.

I close the program, then open it again... drag and drop a folder with subfolders in it and...

The program still show me subfolders.

I just change to "Save to application directory" in the "storage opnions" in the settings menu.

The app create an FLS file name "start".

As I can see the subdirectories value is correct, but still show me subdirectories.

I have another versione of the program (20.1.15): it show me just the main directory, but if I change the setting to show me subdirectory too, it didn't work.

So, 2 different version of the program, 1 (the latest one) show me subfolders too, 1 (the old one) show me just the main folder, but the "search subfolders" option doesn't work in either version.

I don't understand...

In the storage option you can choose " save to directory provided by operating system".

Where is this directory?

I really want to thank you for your help.

If there is anything I can do to show you the problem, i dunno, like remote desktop, or a video, let me know.

Where the settings are saved is explained in this article: sttmedia.com/settings.

Is it possible that you have different settings saved in that folder as well as in the application folder that are interfering with each other?
