[Solved] Open txt file

Post by w64bit »

If I double click on a txt file to open it, sometimes the editor (EditPlus) is opening under Everything window (on top = OFF).
This happens 10-15% of the time.
Is there any setting to use in order to avoid this?

Does this occur with Everything 1.4?

It might be the new execute routines in Everything..

Everything 1.5 will now execute items by invoking the default context menu item.

Try using the old Everything 1.4 method:
  • In Everything, type in the following search and press ENTER:
    /shell_execute_invoke_id_list=0
    where 1 is enabled (default) and 0 is disabled.
    If successful you should see shell_execute_invoke_id_list=0 in the status bar for a few seconds.
Does this help?

It is only a little bit better => it seems to be a problem of EditPlus.
