Problem with Windows 7

Post by ds0934 »

I know this is a bit early, but with the current public beta of Windows 7, TextPad 5 seems to no longer respect the setting "Working folder follows active document". It just returns to the folder of the first-opened file in the editor each time you open another file. I've tested this on two separate Win7 clients and get the same results.

Ok, I've tested this on five separate Windows 7 clients on different hardware. The same thing happens on all of them. It would appear that the file-open dialog API has changed behavior regarding apps. I'm just making a guess obviously.

Same problem with Windows 7 folders

Just to add another experience to the issue here. I've tried the Win7 + TextPad combo on two different computers, too, and both have had this very annoying problem.

Definitely understand it's early days, beta software, all that, but I love this feature of TP and hope that there's a fix soon :)
