I sometimes dl files which have extension .zip but which I know are text files. When I rename them accordingly, xplorer2 will crash. Below is the dbmon log of a similar crash (but the other way round - renaming a text file to a .zip file)
X2.54: Seems like a problem with your system, because in my case it works fine.
The DBMon output shows a problem just after issueing the command. This doesn't happen in my case. Nikos can pinpoint the problem I should think.
@Nikos: Have one remark to add to this. Maybe it is intentional, but when I try to rename a .zip file using Ctrl+F2, I don't get the dialog, but in stead it behaves the same as pressing just F2 without holding down the Ctrl key (selects just the name without extension in the pane itself). This only happens in the case of .zip files as far as I know.
Maybe there is a relation between this behaviour and the problem rulle is having??
Ignore doesn't help, but I think you're right about the drag situation. I found out this crash does not occur if I finish the rename operation with the keyboard (enter) rather than with mouse (left-click in pane).
folders with extensions are still folders, so the F2 way will still work
(i don't think folder "extensions" are hidden when file extensions are)
have you tried it?

No, haven't tried that. But it is logical the 'extensions' of folders won't be hidden when file extensions are, because extensions are only hidden for registered file types. Folders with extensions don't fall into the category of registered files I think.
