I got this very strange behavour in the new beta (which is also in 1.7.0.5). When I switched mirror browing ON with Ctrl-M to compare some directories on my hard disk and DVD (backup), and I do a Return to go into a directory which is on both drives, Mirrow browsing is switched off.
If I type first letters, it follows.

If I try this on my hard disk, no problem. If I do in from my harddisk to the network no problem.

Why is Mirror browsing to my dvd switched off if I do an Enter?
Groetjes,

mirror browsing turns itself off when it can't find a matching folder to get into. Does it get into the 2 folders and then turn itself off?

The following folders are existing:
c:\d\eBooks
d:\eBooks (on the dvd)

I start in c:\d and in D:\

Ctrl-M to switch on

type "eb" and give enter and it switches off.

Even when I start on c:\d\eBooks and gives Enter it doesn't go into d:\eBooks.

Is there a list of all the bug fixes in this beta version ?. I'm particularly interested in anything that you have done regarding "robust transfers".

One little but?

There is this slightly annoying niggle. If I click the delete button while pressing Shift, I don't get the Delete function. Of course Shift+Del on the keyboard works properly, and it's no big deal as such. Perhaps it is supposed to work this way. Anyway, thought I'd put in my two bits worth.

for that purpose there's a toolbar button called Trash, which acts like shift+del
