Changes:- Opus now attempts to detect when third-party DLLs incorrectly call the WSACleanup() function, which can cause Opus FTP to stop working. If an incorrect call is detected Opus will block it and inform you of the faulty DLL's name.
- If Opus detects it is running elevated on a machine with UAC enabled, it now displays "ADMINISTRATOR" in the titlebar so it is easy to detect. It also adds warnings beside Preferences options related to things which only work when Opus is run normally, like Explorer Replacement and Desktop Double-Click. (See our related guide for more information. Generally, you should use the built-in UAC support and Administrator Mode rather than run the whole program elevated.)
- SSH - Updated putty to 0.66 (minor changes only).
- Windows 10: Double-clicks on PDF files now work on a vanilla Windows 10 machine. (May also fix double-click issues with some other file types that don't have a file type class registered.)
- Fix for drag & drop not working from Calibre to Opus.
- Fix for crash which could happen when holding down a hotkey for several seconds, triggering folder read/refresh, with either scripts diverting the read to a different folder or a folder that takes a long time to read.
- Fixed problem that could cause TortoiseSVN status icons to not update after a commit.

Changes:- The thumbnail size slider can now be made to preserve the currently set aspect ratio, by adding the "preserve" keyword to the Args field when editing the field's underlying command.
- The thumbnail size slider, and Show THUMBNAILSIZE by default, now affect hidden folder tabs as well as the visible ones.
- Static context menu items that have localized strings for labels now work if they use an environment variable (e.g. @%CommonProgramFiles%\...) to load a string from a DLL.
- Copy MAKELINK AS now guards against creating a shortcut on top of the file being pointed to.
- Fixed Create Multiple Folders checkbox not always redrawing immediately if toggled via the keyboard.
- Clicking the Sync panel's source/dest swap button now also swaps the lock states of the two path fields.
- The Find and Dupes panels now automatically unlock their folder lists when the lists are modified.
- Fixed crash when changing Find In folder via the browse dialog in specific circumstances. Fixed the new destination tab opened for Find Results being made the source if it triggered dual display opening and the global option to open the dual display as source was on.
- Renaming the case of things inside Rar and 7z archives now works.
- Adding files from collections (including search results) to archives is now faster for Zip and now possible for plugin formats (7z, RAR, etc.).
- If you launch a folder that is already open in the destination side of a dual-display lister, that side will now be made the source, so you can immediately use the folder via the keyboard.
- Fixed copied folders gaining the A attribute when preserving attributes, if NTFS ADS metadata for them was also copied.
- Fixed metadata panel only allowing the mouse wheel to increase, not decrease, the MP3 year tag if it was empty before clicking on it.
- If you ran the Duplicate Finder with nothing defined for the output collection, the Select button did not work.
- High DPI: Fixed the Advanced Button Editor toolbar covering the first line of the edit control at high DPI, if the dialog had its minimal size.
A new FAQ has been posted over at the Resource Centre, detailing how you can add the full filename or full path to the into tip which appears when you hover over a file.
If you use fixed-width columns, or modes like Thumbnails or Tiles, you'll probably find this useful.

Changes:- Fixed an error uploading to some SSH SFTP sites.
- The combination of Single Click and Full Row Select modes now interprets clicks anywhere on the line as a double-click, instead of only on the name part. (Unless Preferences / Miscellaneous / Advanced: single_click_rename is on.)
- Fixed scrollbars and full row selection rectangles not updating to account for bold labels in auto-sized columns when changing folders.
- Windows 10: Open With > Choose Default Program now lets you set a default program again, not just select which program is used to open the file once.
- Breadcrumbs path field now respects the Select previous folder when going up Preferences setting by default. The selectprevious and noselectprevious args can be used to override this.
- The Drives List drop-down will now take you to the root of the drive if you select the drive you are already on. (Previously, it did nothing, even when the curdir argument was not specified.). When the curdir argument is used this must be enabled by adding the rootmode argument as well. The same change also applies to the Go DRIVEBUTTONS command when CURDIR argument is used.
- Metadata panel defaults to the current folder when you add cover art. (Since the cover art is usually already in the same folder as the music.)
- Metadata panel would show coverart unghosted if you selected one file, then ctrl-selected another with different art. Both covers should be ghosted unless changed or in both files.
- Fixed Windows Search results from the previous query coming into the results collection if you changed the query while the previous one was about to return results.
- Fixed libraries pointing at network paths loading slowly if localized paths were enabled.
- Fix for status bar which could appear over some lister elements if it was turned off and you switched to dual display.
- Tooltips in some list controls (mainly in Preferences, not the file display) could show text for the item above the mouse pointer in some situations.
- Fixed cosmetic issue with Thumbnails mode where tiny thumbnails (or huge fonts) could cause labels to draw on top of each other in extreme cases.
- Fixed cosmetic issue with Tiles mode and the Details mode Thumbnail column. The case of CD cover thumbnails could grow larger than the cover art inside it.
- Fix for the script log not showing all script output when scripts generated a huge volume of messages at once.
- Fixed memory leak when using script columns.
- Fixed memory leak each time a Rename or Column script was called for a file.
- Fixed scripting doubleClickData.mouse always showing "none" outside of Details and Power modes.
- Fix for script columns not working for all items in folders with around 10,000 items or more.
- Fix for crash which could occur with some script code. e.g. "Set x = Nothing, DOpus.Output x"
- Windows 10: The folder tree no longer shows duplicate copies of removable drives under both Desktop and This PC branches (sometimes reported as empty drives being shown).
- AudioTags plugin now handles incorrect FLAC files with ID3 data before the "fLaC" header by skipping over it.
- Fixed a number of issues with high DPI displays.
Directory Opus 11.16 is now available as a free update for all Directory Opus 11 users.
Download:Changes:This stable update includes the following new change in addition to everything from the 11.15.x beta updates:
11.16:
- Fix for rare crash when opening the button editor.
11.15.1 beta:
- Added {fsys} status bar code to show the current file system type in the status bar.
- The utility panel now remembers if it was collapsed (shrunk) as well as remembering its previous size.
- Synchronize will longer incorrectly resolve network junction paths (since the paths they resolve to are usually not valid on the local machine).
- Fixed Preferences dialog growing slightly each time it was opened if you were using Opus in Polish (and possibly other languages).
- A script command could incorrectly have one of its /S switch arguments set to true if arguments not matching the template were provided on the command line.
- The state of the Preferences / Folders / Global Filters / Ignore prefix when sorting flag was ignored (so if the prefix field has something in it, it would always be used even if the checkbox were turned off).
- Fixed problem when sorting by the Label column which could cause the sort to not be done correctly (because not all labels had been evaluated yet).
- Fixed problem where file descriptions could get lost if a description was set or changed and then the parent folder renamed immediately (only happened using descript.ion descriptions).
- Fixed problems with dragging files from the TortoiseSVN RepoBrowser to Opus.
- Fixed problem where inline rename could sometimes be triggered incorrectly instead of registering a double-click.
11.15.2 beta:
- Added the Set TREELOCK command which lets the folder tree lock be used even if the tree header is turned off.
- Fixed crash under Windows 10 when double-clicking on an Acronis TrueImage .tib file.
- The "Current sort field" background color setting was ignored when the file display was grouped.
- Fixed overriding of certain system Windows+<key> hotkeys in Windows 10.
- TrueImage context menu extensions are no longer blocked by default as they seem to be better behaved these days.
11.15.3 beta:
- Added the SysInfo script object which lets scripts access mouse and monitor coordinates.
- Upgraded putty code to 0.65, fixes SSH login error on a particular server.
- The command SetAttr META * will now clear date taken/date digitized fields from EXIF tags.
- Multiple-key hotkey sequences now work even if a child control has input focus (provided the first key in the sequence isn't consumed by the control).
- Improved filtering in the synchronize function (previously orphan folders could be left behind selected for sync even if their contents had all been filtered out)
- The Archives plugin now disables ISO handling by default, to avoid getting in the way of the ISO mounting built in to newer versions of Windows or similar tools (and because it could only handle certain ISO types).
- Improved performance of zip archive extraction with archives that contain tens of thousands of files and folders.
- The browse-for-folder dialog is now faster when browsing folders containing zips with a huge number of items inside.
- Fixed glitched transition animations (e.g. when changing folders) when using multiple monitors at mixed DPIs.
11.15.4 beta:
- You can now toggle file and folder labels. e.g. You could bind a hotkey to Properties SETLABEL=Bold SETLABELTOGGLE to toggle the selected files between bold and normal.
- Properties SETLABEL=!menu now respects the SETLABELINFS argument, propagating it to the menu items it generates. Similarly, Properties SETLABEL=!menu SETLABELTOGGLE also works.
- The script Vector object's assign method can now copy into a vector from a collection object.
- The script Command objects's SetFiles and AddFiles methods (and also the DOpus.SetClip method) now accept a Vector of Item objects as well as a collection
- High DPI: Color picker now scales with DPI. (Some more minor issues DPI with it will be improved in the future.)
- Fixed auto-sized date/time columns not expanding correctly in reaction to the first bold label being applied in a folder.
- A command like Copy TO=C:\ ADDTOARCHIVE now opens the Add To Archive dialog with C:\ as the destination folder. Previously, the TO argument was ignored by the dialog and you had to use a script to do the same thing.
- In the file display, the Desktop virtual folder now shows proper icons for OneDrive and the user profile, if they are configured to appear. (Folder tree etc. already had the right icons.)
- Windows 10: Right-clicking files in OneDrive no longer shows "make available online-only" option which only applies to the Windows 8.1 version of OneDrive/SkyDrive.
- Windows 10: Fixed option to hide OneDrive from the folder tree not working at all.
- Windows 10: Fixed "OneDrive" being called "SkyDrive" in various places.
- Windows 10: The "File Explorer" item on the Start button's right-click menu no longer triggers Explorer Replacement.
- Windows 10: Glass status bar cosmetic improvements.
- Windows 8.1: Fixed option to hide OneDrive/SkyDrive from the folder tree only working temporarily (until refresh or new window).
- Workaround for loading incorrectly written 24-bpp BMP files produced by Infinity Engine games.
