Browse folder crash (v9.5.0)

Post by IanOfYork »

I run with the document selector pinned at the side of the TextPad window.
Right clicking on a file listed there pops a context menu 9 options.
Clicking on most do as they say, except "Browse folder" – which crashes TextPad every time.

I can't reproduce this. What kind of filesystem is the selected file on?

That's no file system. Right click your drive > Properties > General > File system:

It should be something like "NTFS" or "FAT32" or "exFAT". Windows version and drive type are independent from that.
