Total Commander (English) • Re: Behaviour of color by filetype filters

2solid

However, there is an issue where every time I enter any folder on any disk, TC checks if each subdirectory contains such files. This causes the panel to refresh and temporarily hang TC.

How do you know that it is this color filter tha1 is the cause of this?

It started when I defined this filter and stops after disabling it.

There is an orphan entry in your [Searches] section:
NOtDirectories_plugin="tc.size.bytes = 0"

try and remove that. An remove the second [Searches] section, though TC will use the first one.

Thanks for noticing.

Maybe I've found the reason. I have enabled "Calculate occupied spaces by directories" and set to "Automatic with Everything". If I set this to manual only, folder in the panel still refreshes, but seems like the refreshes lasts shorter and doesn't hang.

Maybe because the plugin checks each dir causes the folders to be recalculated and refreshed, while it finishes the checks?
