accidentally closing tabs
I've been using xplorer2 pro with no problems on a desktop computer for years. Now I have a laptop and an annoying thing happens: often when I click on a tab to select it, it is interpreted as the command for closing that tab. Yet I didn't click the little cross at the wright, I just clicked the tab name. Anyone else see that happen and know what can cause it (& how to prevent it)?

Re: accidentally closing tabs
Might it have something to do with the doubleclick speed? Is double clicking a tab mapped to the close command (and if so, is it possible to change that in the options somewhere)?

Hm, well... I switched to a different mouse and first impressions are that this seems to help. Maybe it was just a case of a cheapish mouse to eager to interpret single clicks as double clicks somehow (clicking through folders was also somewhat erratic). Over and out.
Re: accidentally closing tabs
you can adjust the double click speed from control panel
also use WINDOW > REOPEN TAB menu if you close a tab by accident

Yes, I saw, that reopen is a nice new function.
Closing by double-clicking can't be disabled?

Re: accidentally closing tabs
okay, that's fine. It only seemed to happen with that iffy mouse & maybe risky double click settings.
