please report any bugs…
I have bug at vista.
when i open folder at xp, tab appears in the same moment. And i like it.
But at vista i have bug. When i open folder, new window appears for second. Then it disappears and new tab opens.
Or may be it isn`t bug?
Here is example: http://rapidshare.com/files/74647431/1.swf.html Sorry for rapidshare.
Please make at vista the same, as at xp, if its possible.
Thank you.
by design, I have to say.
I’ve been looking for a way to fix it, still in vain.
Window appears after QTTabBar is attached to Explorer on XP,
but before on Vista I think…
The problem occurs when explorer window is opened by applications,
by start menu or by desktop icon. If you enable the "Desktop tool" (taskbar toolbar),
double clicking desktop icon would not cause the problem.
Another way is to check an option "Do not capture window as a new tab when opened from outside"
in Option -> Window.
In 1.2, I am having a problem that tabs are not activated when clicked the 1st time.
The tab maybe activated immediately when just created, but after a few click between tabs, some tabs may require 2 clicks to be activated
First of all thanks for the great app. I am looking something like that for years. The only tiny bug i found was that (see pic)
http://www.imageshack.gr/view.php?file=2jn2sq5rk098x022pi5e.jpg
After installing QTTabbar, it sort of worked, but different things would cause exceptions. For example, I could not edit the options. I dug deep into it, and found that your ATLWrapper class gathers the Vista user folders (e.g. My Documents, My Pictures, etc.). If any of them are configured incorrectly (which is pretty easy to do) then the path is null, and your ToLower() call fails.
I fixed my installation by tracking down that my Downloads folder was pointed to an incorrect path. After fixing this in the registry, the QTTabs exception went away. More specifically, I fixed the values in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\User Shell Folders.
Web Browser History gets all confused when QT Tab bar is added. Using BACK KEY in the Web Browser leads to frames instead of web page. Real confusing. I'm not that familiar with QT TAB and looking at the options did not give me clue at what to change there to make it work right.
The reason I like to use it in Web Browser is that it lets me lock open web pages.
Hi Quizo, first big thanx for make this amazing app.
I found this bug:
I open 2 folders located in a dvd, In this case J:\cooler & J:\mint (could be any others, J:\ is the dvd-rom)
If I try to jump from 1 folder/tab to another I get this message and then the folders are closed.
This only happen when one or both folders are in a dvd.
No problem to manage tabs/folder located in my HD.
I'm using v1.2.1.3, I use QTTaBar since v1.0.18 and I don't remember see this bug before.
edit
Help please this addon is powerfull, the error i when i add a folder or hd into group. Thx

Hello,
I'm using QTTabBar 1.2.2.1, and I really like a lot of the little touches it has, like the image previews and the better file rename. I have noticed with the tabs, that they seem to break Explorer's own Back button. When hitting backspace to go back, the window goes where it should. If the Back button is pressed, the Explorer window jumps back to whatever place you started when opening (like My Documents, My Computer, etc).
Would it be possible to make the Explorer back button work for each tab, so I can use the original nav buttons?
Also, for some computers, I would rather not use tabs, but I would like the other features of this program. Could you allow tabs to be disabled, but still have working image previews and file renaming, highlighting, etc?
Thanks!
I have the same issue on Vista 64bit. Win key + E is my typical way of opening explorer. For a second the new window is opened before it is 'sucked' into a preexisting window as a tab. The real problem is that this leaves artifacts on the screen. Basically the window that opened for a second remains an artifact on the desktop until another window is moved over it updating the draw code/regions for that section of the screen. This is almost amusing as one of the 'improvements' of Vista was that this was not supposed to be possible. i.e. if a program locks up or the system starts to hand you could 'paint' your screen with the failing app/window by dragging it around and smearing the draw code everywhere. If you want to get a hold of me for back and forth or for screenshots of the problem just send me a message (SHED) via the contact page on www.brutalbros.com
yeh I'm getting the same, I have to say its those artifacts that are stopping me from using QTTabbar's tab features although I do like the previews of images so have kept that enabled.
I'm sure the author is working hard on it
Looks like a great app, but cannot install.
I'm running windows XP with service pack 3. Avast virus scanner. PCtools firewall. dotNet v2.0. Administrator privileges.
Execute QTTabBar.exe, a dialog box is partially drawn, and the system hangs completely. Have to hit the reset button. Tried both 1.2.2.1 and 1.2.3b2. Never had an app that needed a hard reset to get control of the system, so I'm thinking there must be some obvious problem here. Any ideas of where to even start?
Nevermind, it was PCtools v5 firewall. The exact same thing happened when I tried to run QTTabBar. Removed PCtools, and problem gone.
Oops, meant to say CDburnerXP would lock up - along with QTTabBar.
This app is absolutely awesome! It saves me a tremendous amount of time and clicks and it's fun to use. Thanks so much for your time and work that you put into developing it.
I recently installed your QTTabBar into Windows XP2 and I've come across an extremely annoying bug. Every time that I close a folder, my system makes a sound, the default ding sound. I have "Play sounds" unchecked in the QTTabBar options window and I've checked my systems sounds configuration and there is nothing set in there that would trigger a sound when closing a folder so aside from uninstalling QTTabBar, do you have any suggestions?
My home sound system is hooked up to my PC and the audio is always on and the ding is really distracting.
Thanks again for QTTabBar.
Take care.
Under Vista x64
When QTTabBar is displayed and Ctrl+Alt is pressed
Explorer crash and closed
Ho Quizo,
Thanks for the great application!
I use Windows XP, QTTabBar v1.2.2.1, and my problem is I can't create file shortcuts:
If I copy a file and then right click -> Paste Shortcut, then it pastes a copy of the file, and not a shortcut to the file.
If I drag and drop while pressing the ALT button, it should create a shortcut to the file, bit instead it renames the file to "Copy of <filename>".
Thanks,
Kwyjibo
QTTabbar v1.2.3 beta 5 on Windows Vista home basic 32bit & Windows XP pro. When using QT Tab Desktop Tool I lose Windows Explorer/Desktop When i turn that tool off, only way to fix so i can click icons on desktop and right click on desktop is to either restart explorer or reboot windows. I hope there will be a fix for this as it is not very good to have this keep happening.
Hello!
With QT Tab Desktop Tool activated, double click on the system clock in the right corner isn't working anymore as supposed.
The QT Tab Menu appears instead the windows clock.
Can this be changed?
Thanks and best regards,
Phil
Hi, thanks for making and maintaining the address bar. Here is some error report on the QTAddressBar.
- Network shares (e.g. \\point\to\somewhere or \\192.168.1.64\whatever) show up *pretty* bad
- FTP feature is not working: original address bar allows to type ftp://point.to.somewhere/folder
this does *not* work with QTAddressBar
Another suggestion is to apply some ideas to make the address bar rock-solid and very fast.
Thanks again for making this nice piece of software!
UNC paths in Groups causing delay
I have several UNC paths defined in my Groups and when I first attempt to access the Groups list the application will hang for a period time. I assume that the list is going out and for whatever reason touching these UNC paths causing the delay. Once this initial delay has been overcome, then the Groups list works normally. Any way to not have the Groups list go out and touch the UNC paths and thereby avoid this extremely painful delay going forward?
BTW, nice app and thanks for all your work on this.
Having same problems as others described while testing both stable and beta builds of QTTabBar in Windows 7 RC build 7100. It still works perfectly for me in XP SP3 and Vista SP2, you're awesome!
This file was created by QTTabBar for debugging. Sorry for inconvenients. You can delete this without any harm.

on 1.2Bete4 I tested center-alignment for fixed width tab.
do you prefer previous?
may add a feature that user can choose alignments on requests…
Hey Quizo!!! :)
I think the centered text looks weird. A choice would be nice.
Nice job on the new beta!
please Quizo that feature would be nice (tab text alingment)
nice work and im glad you could add the "x" to close tabs very nice work :)
i found this bug it happens when rename ambiguous tabs is enabled. i tried with auto, limited and fixed and the result is the same

Hello Quizo. I'd reported this by email a couple months ago. I reported the same thing with QT Address Bar and that got fixed. I guess you didn't get the email or just forgot about it.
As previously in QT Address Bar, QT Tab Bar doesn't show folders with the system attribute set.
Hello,
please make sure that the option -> miscs -> "Show system objects" is checked near sub folder tip options.
Hahaha, thanks Quizo! I hadn't noticed it! :/
You have a GREAT memory! :D
Hi, I have noticed that the mouse move slower with the qttab. I explain it: If I am at firefox or gaim, my mouse move normal, but when I am at the explorer, its slower. Any fix?
Thanks and nice work ^^
Hello,
slow even on local folder not on network folder?
some options like thumbnails, sub folder tip, alternate color might cause such a thing.
( mouse doesn't move slower on my XP and Vista, though. )
can i ask you your machine spec?
have you installed other shell extensions such as mouse gesture?
Hi,
is slower in both local and network folder. I always use stroke it! as mouse gesture, but it is a program, not a shell extension, and only when I install qtbar the mouse gone slower.
My machine is an Athlon 64 X2 3800+, 1gb ddr400, gigabyte k8nfl4 (nforce4 chipset), geforce 7900GS, sata hard drivers…
I forgot to say than I have Windows XP SP2 :b
I found this bug, it happens when i turn on "Capture new Explorer processes" and turn off "Do not capture window as a new tab when opened from outside".
I like a lot that option in and in ver 1.1.0.1 that bug did not hapen.
Whaaaaaaaaay….? Without that bug it be perfect app for me.
Nice job on the new beta!

thanks,
it'll be fixed on next.
It's a great program. I found a bug in window vista, when I open a new window, and then I open another window, normally it will replace the new window by a tab in the previous window. Instead, it just add a new tab in the previous window and open a new cliche window. There is no such problem with the old version 1.1.01.
Anyway it's a nice program, I love it.
Thanks.

I've noticed a bug with Groups. When the menu is called from the taskbar I see the deleted link. It doesn't show when called from a window. I think it has something to do with the entry still being there, but the folder has been deleted. Deleting the entry from the options menu removes it from the Taskbar menu also.
Explorer window:

Taskbar:

Also, when adding something new to the group, it shows up in the window menu right away, but not on the taskbar menu. After checking the options menu and pressing 'OK', the link is visible in the taskbar menu.
thanks, the bugs are represented.

When I load the Desktop Tool, I get a crash error in verclsid.exe and the toolbar doesn't load.
The workaround is to just rename verclsid.exe to verclsid.exe.bak and then the toolbar loads just fine.
Edit: I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit with a 64-bit processor.
Thanks.
I've got reports about verclsid.exe error.
and am investigating the issue.
Hello Quizo,
I find some issue in the 1.2 version, when you have a tab with the close button active and the double click over the background of the tabs is associated with open a new tab in a path specified, then if you have one tab open and double click over the background to open a new tab y your mouse is near the close button of the new tab, then this tab is closed an the view area of the previous opened tab is replaced with the content of the closed tab, but if you watch the history of that tab the path of the closed tab is not in the list.
I hope this can be reproduce again in your environment.
Thanks in advance
it's reproduced. I fix in next.
thx
A bug when using the 'bold' option for active tabs:
http://www.abload.de/img/qt4s1s.jpg
The tab isn't being resized when the font is bold.
thanks,
I'm intending a minor bugs-fixed release in next year.
I install version "QTTabBar ver 1.2.1.2"
and the problem persist
In 1.2, when changing quickly between tabs by mouse click, tabs are not activated on 1st click
there seems to be a delay or time threshold between tab clicks
If I wait for a secound or 2, tabs are activated on click immediately
Maybe not so much a bug, but an annoyance. When right clicking on a folder icon at the top of my screen, the menu draws on top of the tab when it should probably drop down instead.
Instead of something like this:
I get this: 
Before today I happily used QTTabBar 1.1.0.
Now that I've installed 1.20 version I receive this error every time I try to open another Explorer Window:

Uninstalling 1.20 version and re-installing the 1.1.0 one, all come back working fun.
Any idea to resolve this issue?
Thanks
Oops, I did not mean to replay the previous post, but create a new post
Sorry, remove this plz
Hi, I fixed a point that might cause this error.
1.2.1 is coming soon.
Hi Quizo
Thanks for the great programs!
Here are some bugs/gliches/annoying stuff I found:
QTTabBar
When search is pressed and the search is open already, the search window does not get closed
Full row selection in details view - Does not work good (Enable and switch to Tiles, select files - glitch. Then close tab, open same folder, switch to details - does not work!)
If option "New tab location" is Right, groups load in reverse order
QTAddressBar (I know it's QTTabBar's forum, but there seems to be no forum for QTAddressBar)
Ctrl/Shift + Insert (Copy/paste, Ctrl + C/V alternatives) don't work in address bar
It would also be nice if QTAddressBar could open a new tab with middle click, in case QTTabBar is installed (a new window otherwise)
That's all I can think off atm
Keep up the good work!
Oh, and one more thing
QTTabBar
Explorer's select command line switch does not select the file (Ex. explorer.exe /select, C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe)
Ctrl/Shift + Insert (Copy/paste, Ctrl + C/V alternatives) don't work in address bar
Same with the Search tool in QTTabBar
Another thing I noticed:
QTTabBar (1.2.2.0)
If a folder is empty, both left-click and right-click 'Sub folder tip' don't work
And for QTAddressBar:
If you have installed QTTabBar, open new tab by click buttons or menu with Shift key down.
Why not middle-click? That would be much more convenient, imo
Hello,
Sometimes QTTabBar is very slow on network. Do you know why ?
Not sure if it's a bug or a feature, but when QTTabbar takes over the drop down menu for the forward/back buttons in Vista, it puts the most recent folders at the bottom of the list. If you have a long list, you have to scroll waaaay down to get to your most recent folders.
2 bugs:
windows vista: constantly looping messagebox when using quick search in a locked tab, "QTTAB cannot open …" only solution is to restart explorer.exe, very frustrating
windows vista: cannot use the desktop tool, crashes when you try to add it.
wow it's a terrible bug!
I fix it soon.
Thanks.
Second one is "verclsid.exe" issue?
I'm investigating it.
thank you for the fast fix!
when i try to add the Qt tab bar desktop tool I get an error that Extension CLSID has crashed
well the search works now in locked tabs, but the search window replaces the locked tab, so the locked tab is not there anymore… I think if you search, the search window should open in another tab
Hello Quizo and thanks for this great Add-In.
I've got some bugs on network folder with v1.2.1.2
Steps for reproduce the bugs:
1-Open My Network Places
2-Middle click on a shortcut
Bug 1 : On the new tab, I can't middle click on a folder :(
3-Open a folder in the new tab
4-In this new folder, Middle click on another folder
5-Return on the second tab
Bug 2 : the tab close and QTTabBar say "QTTabBar cannot open…"
6-On the last tab, click on "Up one level", "Go back" then "Go forward"
Bug 3 : QTTabBar say "QTTabBar cannot open…"
http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2997/12268732am9.jpg
I try it with the v1.1.0.1, only the bug1 appears.
Good luck ;)
Thank you.
I investigate it.
The program works fine to me. The only annoying thing I found, is that when I click the "back" button of the standard "windows explorer", it always gets me back to the default path: "My Documents", no matter where I've been it always gets me back there. The same button of "QTTabBar" works well. I'll thank very much if someone tells me how to fix this.
Thanks,
but I know it's hard to make builtin navigation buttons work properly,
for I have not found the way to hook those toolbar buttons function.
I recommend XP users to use "QTTab standards buttons".
Yeah, this one is annoying to me too. "Back" should mean 'back', and not 'root'. Can't wait until this one's fixed.
Wanted to report this too, luckily I took time to browse through.
Hope this can be fixed soon.
I like my Explorer buttons as they are skinned by Y'z Toolbar already.
..same problem with QTTabBar v1.2.3b5!! Quizo.. congratulations for your program but please try to fix this annoying bug!!
Many people use yours tabs for skinning Windows Explorer like Vista one's.. and it's hard to renounce with programs (such YzToolbar) to skin explorer buttons icons..
Ciao and Thank You
I had this annoying thing but when I use forward button for first my BACK button properly work
Hello Quizo, I'd like to report a bug in version 1.2.1.3 I just installed. In previous versions when I d&d a file onto a tab with right button pressed I'll get the popup menu to copy, move, etc, but in this new version the file is directly copied My OS is Windows XP. Thanks.
It seems that I made a bug.
Thanks, i fix it soon.
Greetings,
I'd like to report a bug which converns Windows Vista x64.
Ever since I have installed Vista Business x64 the "Sub folder tip[s]" and "Preview tooltips" don't seem to work even though they are enabled.
I am still using Windows XP Pro x86 parallel and used to have Vista x86 running in a Virtual Machine and didn't have this particular problem there.
I'd be glad if someone could tell me how to fix this because I really love those tooltips ;-)
And thank you very much for this great app, Quizo - it's one of my favourites for Windoes *gg*
So long,
Daedalos.
The same problem occurs in xp64, too.
The preview tooltips is in fact one of my favorite function.
Really want to know if it will be fixed in near future release?
Hi!
I've been using and enjoying QTAdressBar for sometime now, but one issue doesn't let me use it as a replacement for the standard address bar:
When Windows set to restore opened folder windows at logon (Folder options -> View -> Restore previous folder windows at logon), sometimes (depends on how much other stuff startup with Windows) QTAddressbar does not starts on time and opened folder windows shows without it. If one would remove standard address bar with QT, they would endup with folder window without any address bar. And the only way to fix it is close them and open again.
Perhaps Windows has some sort of priority for it's startup software and QT doesn't take advantage of it?
I hope this can be fixed. I wouldn't mind do manually some changes to the system, as long is it fixes the issue..
Thank you.
If one would remove standard address bar with QT
This should be read as:
If one would replace standard address bar with QT
my bug report here:
http://qttabbar.wikidot.com/forum/t-35499/can-qttabbar-config-my-computer-this
Since i seldom use mouse, i've encountered a bothersome bug.
1. select two or more folders,
2. open context menu,
3. highlight one of the items(excluding 'open') with arrow keys.
4. and press enter(instead of pressing shortcut key or mouseclick)
=> this will not trigger the desired action but open selected folders as new tab.
one more thing:
the 'cursor loop' feature doesn't seem to work properly when items are not sorted.
1. suppose there are items which are named 'a', 'b', and 'c'.
2. drag 'c' into middle of 'a' and 'b', so that items are listed as 'a', 'c', 'b'. (with 'view option' as "Icon")
=> finally i can't go to 'b' with arrow keys.
Oh, and i should not forget to say thanks to you, QTTabbar is my must-have program. Thank you!
Hello Quizo ! You are making a nice Job with QTtabBar !
I don't know if that is a bug but when I call the explorer with the shortkey win+e, windows bring me up the version without QTTabBar. It'is normal ? I check the option dialog but i don't find anything to fix this issue.
PS: I checked the option that catch explorer process, but it work only when i use the mouse not with shortkey.
Thanks, keep up the good work.
Hi!
There is the same behaviour, when you open a folder inside Start-Menu via right-mouse-button -> Explorer : This opens an explorer-window without QTTabBar! You also cannot 'catch' this window with 'merge tabs of other windows'.
Same problem when you use PortableApps and klick on 'Explore'.
Apart from these little problems, QTTabBar is very nice! Thank you, Quizo!
I'm using Vista Home Premium and I have it set to open a new tab when double clicking on the tab bar, but it doesn't work. Is anyone else having this problem? And it would be nice if when I right click on the tab bar that there was "Open a new tab" in the menu, and also adding "Open in new tab" to the right click menu for folders would be nice too (like with Firefox and right clicking on links). Using 1.2.1.3.
About the back button going back to the root, it seems to function properly on Vista at least.
I've been using this for about 2 weeks now and I've been loving the tab feature but, just recently opening a new tab has been crashing explorer causing it to restart. Details below:
Vista 32-Bit Home Premium
Forced Tab opening is on, all new windows should become tabs.
Nvidia 8800 GT
2G Ram
AMD 2.0GHz 3800+
Crash explination:
When duplicating a tab, vista shows an error box simply saying "Windows Explorer.exe has stopped responding. Checking for solutions…" until it just restarts explorer and not say anything else.
When opening a new window from start menu or elsewhere when there already is an instance of explorer open it displays the following error.
Picture of opening a new window when one already exists:

I tried putting it in a quote or table but couldn't figure out how.

Oh I forgot to say, this is also preventing me from opening the Options menu.
I completely whiped the program and reinstalled…it works alright now. Should have done that before I reported a bug I guess.
"rightClick-drag" doesnt work on tab on ver 1.2.1.3 … that's when u want to copy or move files by rightClick then drag into tab… the default action always executed instead showing a context menu…
or may be the feature has been removed.. :(
okay I keep getting explorer crashes whenever i have 0, 2, and or any other amount of tabs open and go to the start menu or taskbar to start up another program explorer crashes on me with .dll errors in two files oleaut32.dll and msvbvm60.dll. I'm going to try uninstalling it again etc and reinstalling it but i've also got some update patches from microsoft and ran those as well and nothing seems to help.
Is there any otehr way to make sure QTT uninstalls correctly and doesn't leave any files behind?

The program was working fine in version 1.1.0.1, but after upgrading to 1.2.1.3 some weird things started happening.
For example, Nothing happens when I click on the "My Documents" link in the start menu. This is also the same when I click My Documents from the desktop or from my Dock application.
Also, whenever I open a folder from my desktop or from a keyboard shortcut (Win+E) Qttabbar does not use my configuration but instead reverts to the default setting.
It seems to completely ignore any instances of QTTabbar windows running in the background and it opens a new window instead. I have tried all the settings and also reinstalled QTabbar, but nothing works.
Is this something to do with leftover files from the previous version? & how would I remove them?
I'd be glad if someone could tell me how to fix this because I really love Qttabar and I can't bear the classic windows interface!
Problem solved. All i had to do was rollback ms.net back to 2.0
I use ver 1.2.1.3
when i open a folder which contain *.rmvb files ,the explorer will be crash, the only thing i can resume is to kill the explorer process.
Always error when i add a new item to tabgroup,(Version 1.2.2)

I have no idea why safe mode disables your QT toolbar (works ok with my XP SP2), but you can save your customized settings as a reg file…go to options\general tab & click the "Export Settings" button. Next time you need to reapply your saved settings, simply click the saved reg file & the existing registry key will be overwritten with your saved customizations.
I have the same in 1.2.2 as somebody above. Error during group creation:

Hello from Spain and thanks for this program.
A question: sometimes when I click a folder, there is some delay, 2-3 seconds until the browser show the files. It´s normal this delay?
I use XP profesional.
Thanks
Issues with the renaming of files
EG Say I have a file called
"The wind in the willows that never comes here"
and I rename it to
"The Wind"
a). During the renaming portion the text of the previous name is still displayed
b). Sometimes the File will be renamed incorrectly - like it will take a portion off the end of the previous filename eg "The Windes here"
c). After renaming the files the folder doesn't refresh the names so they old names still appear
I have the same problem, hope it will be fixed with next update.
sometimes happens to me the same.. QTTabBar v1.2.3.b5 installed
I've noticed that ctrl+tab (next tab) and sctrl+shift+tab (previous tab) are much slower (sometimes I have to wait some seconds to see the other tab) than selecting the tab with a mouseclick or with the mousewheel on the tabbar (the tab appears immediatly). Could you remove this delay? I want to use the shortcuts for the next and previous tab for mouse geastures with a program like StrokeIt (http://www.tcbmi.com/strokeit/).
My computer:
Windows XP SP2

QTTabBar 1.2.2.1
QTAdressBar 0.96
Thanks from Germany
Hi,
At first I would like to say the QTTabBar is great program. I really appreciate it!
I found tiny bug. The language file must have CRLF at end of line. CRLF is default end-of-line in Windows. Some of translation presented on page have just LF - used in Unix. (more info here)
So, my solution is to convert this *bad* files to windows format or allow to use the unix LF in QTTabBar.
Greetings!
I set QTTabBar so new folders are opened in an existing window as a new tab. But I noticed sometimes folders opened from a shortcut are not catched, and so opened in a new window.
I have Windows XP SP2 and .NET Framework (bleah…) 2.0
I can confirm this. For example:
I can open a folder via Start—>Run … and it won't be opened in the same window where I opened a folder via a desktop shortcut.
Hi there Quizo. I'm using the 1.2.2.1 version of QTTabbar and I have a huge problem that I don't know if it's a bug or Xp problem.
When I click on the arrow that shows the folder content ( sorry for not knowing the name of it) and click on any .ink shortcut it tells me that Windows doesn't know what to do with files with that extension.
"Windows cannot open this file. To open this file Windows need to know what program created it."
(Really bad translation)
I really think that the problem is with my OS because I also usa Stacks with RD and I have the same problem with the same message. If you could help it would be great. And another thing, when I select various items with the CTRL key pressed the tooltip of the file shakes like it's apearing and disapearing continualy. Well that's all by me and very sorry for my English. Cumps.
I don't know this is bug, but i can't select more then one file?? and my window settings (view and columns) always reset.
Hello,
I installed the last version 1.2.2.1 on Vista sp1, used a bit, then uninstalled. Now I can't disable the menubar anymore. Tried rebooting, reinstalling and uninstalling, etc
Help please ?
Thanks
Andy
Uhm sorry, I missed the faq entry. However I still have a 4 pixel high mini bar. Is that normal ?
i'm having a problem with the standard buttons…. they disappear after i close and re-open any window. i have to close and re-open the standard buttons toolbars to make them work… any idea what i should do?
Could you add a button for showing/hiding Folders to the menu bar? If this button is added it offers everything the Windows menu bar does and I can get rid of it by selecting "Hide menu bar" in the options.
Great Tool
Hey, Quizo. Great extension!
The only bug I've found is a relatively minor one, but it's definitely there nonetheless. Whenever I am in a folder using thumbnail view, enter a subfolder, and then use the 'back' button on my mouse to navigate to the previous folder, the subfolder highlighted in the first window is the one to the left of the one I selected. I say 'to the left' instead of 'previous' because if I repeat this process on a folder that is on the left edge of the screen's layout, the highlight is in the correct spot (it does not move to the previous row's rightmost folder).
I should note that this only happens when I use the 'back' button on my mouse (logitech vx revolution) - clicking the back button on the explorer window does not yield the highlight shifting issue. Also, this behavior recurs in both Vista [Ultimate] and XP Professional [SP3 beta].
It's not a terribly huge or deal-breaking issue by any means - like I said, *great* piece of software! - but if you have time to fix that after dealing with a lot of these (seemingly more critical, in many cases?) bugs, that would be fantastic.
Did anybody tell you this was featured in PC Magazine, by the way? That's how I found it…
Hi, Quizo
Thks for this app. I like it very much.
Now I found a problem When I select the option "QT TAB STANDARD BUTTON" and unselect
the option "QT TABBAR" then close the windows and open it again, you will find that the icon
of "QT TAB STANDARD BUTTON" disappeared. Waiting for your help, thanks

Whenever I use the back button on my Logitech mouse, I go back 2 directories instead of 1, same with the forward button. I think the reason it goes back 2 directories is because it activates the back feature for QTTabBar and Windows Explorer. There should be a way to disable the back feature so only one program handles it, instead of both.
In Windows XP if the "No window resizing" option is enabled, and the explorer is maximized, the taskbar don't appear, it seems to be over the taskbar, and I'm not using the TopMost Option.
I've just installed the version 1.2.2.1 and when clicking on folder shortcut, the folder open in a new window and not in a new tab. How to correct this ? I cannot see an option that have changed…
When installed in Vista SP1 x64, the toolbar is only installed for the x64 version of explorer.exe
Some programs (e.g. utorrent) launch the x86 version of explorer.exe, where no qt tabbar is avaliable.
Is it possible to have QT TabBar installed in both 32bit and 64bit explorer.exe? (such as by changing registry?)
First of all excuse me for my poor english. I downloaded and installed the „QTTabBar“ from qttabbar.wikidot.com at my Vista running laptop.
While I try to add a group, the following window is shown.
I copy and pasted a image of the error-window and the text-message here:
http://home.arcor.de/sven.brier/public/errors/qttabbar/2008-05-25_qttabbar-error.html
Can you help me, please?
It's me again - the error occurs while trying to add a group in the options-menu. When you open the location in the Windows-Explorer and then rightklick on the tab choosing "Neue Gruppe erstellen …" (Create new Group) everything is OK.
:O)
hey quizo
here is my prob and i think its a bug
Both application (QTTabBar, QTAddressBar) don't working without administartion rights.
When trying to save a group set-up, I am getting a null exception when it tries to save the tree view. v1.2.2.1
I installed 1.2.2.1 two days ago.
Today right after OS startup (XP SP2), I open Explorer.
Nothing happend (I guess the .Net framework need some time to load).
Then I open Explorer again (in case first attempt to open (doubleclick) Explorer was not successful).
After some while (4 seconds or so) following Exception Dialog popped up:

Then the Exporer shut down (blank destop) and restarted after some seconds.
Now the Exporer is very slow and I have to reset OS…
For a file that has Windows encryption, the text color is incorrect.
I'm in detail mode with highlight alternate rows and grid.
The text color is correct for the non-highlighted rows.
I have a problem with F6 button I previously used to focus address bar to quickly change location. Now if QTTabBar standard buttons are shown pressing this button result in switching through its controls which is probably good for someone, but I lost the most frequently used keyboard shortcut in Windows Explolorer. Is there any workaround to have it shown (I love that search box) and make F6 work as usual? Version is 1.2.2.1. It is easily reproducible on my all computers with QTTabBar. In all other matters QTTabBar is just an amazing application!
Hi, I am getting similar crashed with windows explorer as the guy above. No events reported but windows explorer will hang the whole system and seem to crash if I use the QT Standard buttons.
Without the buttons everything seems fine. I can use the tab bar but that's it.

After uninstalling, the menubar remains visible, even when it's unticked. It's impossible to hide it now.
After uninstalling, the menubar remains visible, even when it's unticked. It's impossible to hide it now.
You need to make sure you don't show the menu bar before uninstalling.
Probably reinstalling it, then hide the menu bar, then uninstall will fix your problem.
This does not work. And it's annoying.
I am using QTAddressBar on XP. When I click on the right end of the address bar, I see the "real" directory path (instead of the Vista style). Then I paste a new directory path. But when I click the arrow or press enter, nothing seems to happen. I would expect explorer to change to the pasted path (as does the explorer in XP and Vista).

Apologies for double posting this. It's near the top too, attached to one of the original posts in the thread. I didn't realize that people were posting newer messages down here.
Hello,
I'm using QTTabBar 1.2.2.1, and I really like a lot of the little touches it has, like the image previews and the better file rename. I have noticed with the tabs, that they seem to break Explorer's own Back button. When hitting backspace to go back, the window goes where it should. If the Back button is pressed, the Explorer window jumps back to whatever place you started when opening (like My Documents, My Computer, etc).
Would it be possible to make the Explorer back button work for each tab, so I can use the original nav buttons?
Also, for some computers, I would rather not use tabs, but I would like the other features of this program. Could you allow tabs to be disabled, but still have working image previews and file renaming, highlighting, etc?
Thanks!
I have a history bug. when i open two or more tabs, back button seems to go back to previous page of first tab. pls fix this. it is especially annoying when you do a search. since back button does not work, you have to go all the way from my computer to the same folder.
i am working on windws xp.
thanks.
I have just recently discovered Qt tabs.Find it to be excelllent.My main problem is the preview option.When previewing folders it does not display all the content of inside folder.why?
I get some heavy crashes when I try to explore my Pocket PC while using this program
DOH I just noticed that this thread is for QT tab and not QTAddressBar -_-
Help, the back button isn't doing his work anymore after installing qttabbar 1.2.2.1… i'm using XP SP3…
In the back button menu is only the highest folder shown and clickable… the other folders aren't there anymore…
Apart from this, qttabbar is really a great work, but this mistake makes the windows explorer a bit uncomfortable…
just got this error message this morning when opening 'my computer' - hope it helps you fix an excellent product.

Hi, I found a bug.
When trying to see the "undo closed" on the "QT Buttons bar" or in the context menu, explorer.exe crashes (the folder freezes).
I think I've isolated the problem: I installed the QTTabBar with an external USB HDD, everything worked fine until I unplugged it; after that the problem mentioned above appeared.
Then I plugged the drive and "undo closed" option worked fine again.
I can watch the undo closed items with the external drive plugged but the strange thing is that not a single item belongs to the usb HDD.
By the way, I like a lot the application.
The search box width keeps shrinking whenever it's used.
To replicate open windows explorer and use the search box.
Close windows explorer and next time you open it again, search box width will be tighter.
Repeat this process a few times and you'll end with a short box with no space for writing.
Same problem here. My search box is only a little line.
Bug on: Power on or Restarting
Option enabled: 'Restore previous folder windows at logon'
I get this error for each folder leave opened except one, and for each of them there are no more the standard buttons.
This doesn't appen if the tabs are merged, but there is only one tab…

Under Vista x64
When QTTabBar is displayed and Ctrl+Alt is pressed
Explorer crash and closed
In Windows Vista, after having installed and uninstalled QtTabBar beta 5 the Windows explorer menu (the one activated/deactivated with ALT) is allways displayed and ALT doesn't work anymore.
The only way I found to make it work again is to restore Windows from a previous restore point…
Two more things :
I am also using QtTabBar on netbooks (for example MEDION Akoya mini) with display resolution of 1024x600 and the option windows is a bit too big. It would be perfect if you could make it fit in this resolution. Acutally the height is too big (>600)
Second think : I forgot to precise that your software is REALLY GOOD ! Thank you !

The installation was successful, but adding the file-tools plugin caused windows explorer to hang and then to restart. Only the basic buttons can be used, any attempt to add or remove buttons crashes explorer.
Hi,
I like this software, I want to use it for the "up" and "delete" buttons mainly.
I tried the stable version, and beta too, but to no avail. Let me explain:
After installing and restarting, I was able to open qt tabbar and make my settings and everything was fine, except that NONE of the buttons was working. When I closed the window (or opened a new one), all the buttons were gone. They appeared as soon as I made a change in button settings and pressed OK. Please help me with this problem, I am desperate :(
I am on freshly installed Vista 64bit with SP1.

Hello I am using 1.2.2.1 on XP SP2. I have two bugs to confirm/report.
One, the back/forward buttons do not recognize the hierarchy like the 'up' button. I thought that was the intent of it, unless I am mistaken.
Two, the biggie. Every time I double click on a folder to open it, in and outside of the Folders pane, it opens in a new tab. I did not want that at all. It looks like it activates explorer.exe again everytime. When that happens another tab is generated instead of a new window. I asked a few people and checked the registry keys for that and all that checked out but still the undesired effect occurs. Folder Options is set to browse folders in same window as well. It all worked before but one day it stopped. I cant figure out why.
Any help with this would be super. I really like the functionality this program gives to my folders, saves me a ton of time and it looks cool the way I have my system set up. Thank you!

1) thats why quizo also made "qt tab standar buttons". use it instead of the windows toolbar
2) go to qttabbar options => windows tab => uncheck "capture new explorer processes" and check "do not capture windows as a new tab when opened from outside"
Quizo—Man, you rock! What an awesome toolbar. Now that I found this little gem, I'll be installing it on other computers & telling others about it.
I think I found a multi-monitor support bug (on XP, SP3). I have 3 monitors setup with the following left-to-right physical configuration:
(Monitor 2) (Monitor 1) (Monitor 3)
This allows me to keep the taskbar and popped-up dialog boxes in the center monitor of the configuration.
If I start QTTabBar's Desktop toolbar from Monitor 2, it opens at the X-Y position, but on Monitor 1.
If I start QTTabBar's Desktop toolbar from Monitor 1, it opens at the X-Y position, but on Monitor 3.
If I start QTTabBar's Desktop toolbar from Monitor 3, it opens on monitor 3, but only the vertical position correct (horizontally the menu opens as far right as possible).
The problem is fixed and the toolbar opens at the right location if I change the configuration to (Monitor 1) (Monitor 2) (Monitor 3).
Not certain that you'd necessarily want to fix this, but double-clicking the desktop does not bring up the Desktop Toolbar work in XP (SP3) if I also have web content displayed on the desktop (via Windows Display Properties->Desktop tab->Customize Desktop button->Web tab).
I'm probably one of many that reports this, but recently Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 SP1 was released. I installed it and ever since get this error:
I'm also getting that long error, but as it just wastes space when I'd post it here, I uploaded it in a txt file: http://ztz.110mb.com/QTTabBar.txt
I translated the dutch parts to english so everyone could understand.
If you need any more info to solve this bug you can always contact me and ask.
The fact is when I open explorer now, the tab name is empty, when I open a folder then it just opens and the tab name stays empty.
If I want to close it, I have to click multiple times, it's like each folder was opened in a new tab, but that's not visible…
I'm using Vista Home Premium 6.0.6001
I hope you get this solved quickly, if not I'll be awaiting an update anyhow as this is probably the best thing I ever installed on vista =)
Hello,
I'm working with Images which are stored in several numbered-named folders.
A strange bug appeared where in one folder all filenames disappear when it is in Thumbnail or Filmstrip-viewmode (using Win XP). In all other view modes, filenames are visible.
If I rename a file, the textbox for renaming appears and overlaps the thumbs in the row beneath the file. After renaming, the filename is hidden again. The space between two rows of files in this folder is smaller than in other folders where this bug didn't occur.
Refresh does not help. The strange thing: This is related to the folders name! If I delete the folder and create a new one, the problem persists if I use the same name for the folder.

Things I've forgotten: I didn't have this problem since I use QTabbar. It occured while working with this folder. I was not able to reproduce it yet for another folder. I don't know if it will be gone after rebooting since I did not reboot yet. And I'm using vs. 1.2.3 Beta 5
My problem is that some 3rd party progs like µtorrent or downthemalll from firefox open a new folder with a new explorer.exe
I have the options box to integrate new explorer.exe checked
XP
QTTB 1.2.3 Beta5
I dont know whats wrong but neither qt addressbar or tabbar will work http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/1355/bugtst.png
Please help
Go to Tools > Manage Add-ons in IE8 and enable them.
Just today I logged in after a reboot and QTTabbar wasn't showing up in Explorer. I figured out to enable it in IE8… but it seems that if it's enabled in IE8, it's visible in IE8. Only way to get it out of IE8 (where it's not needed) is to disable it which removes it from explorer. Ug.
I use 1.2.3Beta5 on Vista64.
I found that after every reboot the search-Field in the QTTabBar StandardButtons narrows a little bit.
Right now I can just see a millimeter of the text area.
Older Versions worked well.
I upgraded because I could not add groups which works well in this version.
Thanx for the great app.
I use QTTabBar 1.2.3β5 on Windows XP SP3. I also use Windows Desktop Search 4.0 (WDS).
When I search with WDS using the search box in the task bar (called Windows Deskbar), the search result window will open only if no other Explorer windows are open.
Cheers,
Markus
Qttabbar crashes after logging into Windows while loading the opening the folder that where open when Windows was shut down previously (perhaps it has something to do with multiple folder windows being open on shut down).
I have Windows XP SP3 (with all current Windows and .net Updates), IE8 and Qttabbar 1.2.3 Beta5 installed.
Folder options I have checked (besides others): "Use own process for every folder", "reload previous folders on system log on".
Qttabbar options:
On "General" tab all selected, except "Close all tabs when group opened".
On "Tab" tab all options are selected, except close button should be shown always
On "Windows" tab: "Capture new Explorer processes", "Show folder tree when new process captured"
On "Appearance" tab nothing selected
Plugins are "FolderTreeButton" and "ChangeFolderViewMode"
On "Misc" tab I have selected: "Grid lines for details view", "Alternative row color in details view" and others I guess are not important here.
The call trace of the crash is:
System.InvalidOperationException: Das Objekt wird bereits an anderer Stelle verwendet. ("The object is already used at a different location")

Great tool!!
There is a small bug in connection with 7-Zip in the context menu (vers 1.2.2.1)
When I choose several zip files, open the context menue with the special key on the keyboard and then press the letter for "unzip here" QTTabBar won't unzip but open the several zip files as new tabs.
If I do exactly the same with the mouse, i.e. press the "unzip here" comand in the context menue with the left mouse button, everything works fine.
If I choose only one zip file, "unzip here" works correctly with both approaches, via keyboard or mouse.
On explorer open, tab label is blank and new tabs cannot be opened. Toolbar background is also "lost." Accessing QTTAB options crashes all of explorer (even if separate process for each window). If QTTAB is deselected and the reselected, it then works fine but this must be done each time an explorer window is opened.
Same bug found under windows 7 as the previous poster observed. Plus, under xp or vista when QTtab enabled, there is a very very very neat feature: double click anywhere (empty space) in a folder will nevigate back into the parent folder. This feature must have saved me hours as no need to place the mouse accurately on the Back button. However this feature is not working under windows 7 anymore.
btw, thanks for such a wonderful software. I wish microsoft license this into native windows explorer.
Win 7, x64 RC 7100 here. Same problem. QTTabBar 1.2.3b4, I see Rowe (2 posts up) has the same problem with b5.
The toolbar positions also reset each time.
I forgot how much I hate the way the backspace key works. "No, go UP dammit!"
On XP SP3 I sometimes get a crash on system start.

Sorry for offtopic, in some way.
I've installed your AddressBar on clean Windows (already installed + .net, of course). But after I installed Office 2007, your AddressBar disappeared and entry in context menu became disabled so I can't turn it on.
Is there way to try uninstall to reinstall QTAddressBar? I didn't find it in Installed Programs list ): .
Or this is known issue?
I'll be glad to get answer on my email.
Hello Quizo.
I installed the latest version on a Windows XP OS. The installation seems to have gone smoothly. However, there is a problem. I cannot enable the standard buttons or the address bar from the Windows Explorer. When I right click on any of those, and actually most of the other toolbars in the right click menu, nothing happens — the only exceptions to this are Standard Buttons and Address Bar. On the other hand, I can right click and enable the QT Tab Bar toolbars on Internet Explorer.
To get to the bottom of this, I ran the sysinternals program to figure out the running processes, and this is what I saw in the Internet Explorer tab:
…so I looked for these QT registry entries in the tab for Explorer, but couldn't find them. Maybe that's the problem? I dunno….
Can you help?
In the options menu, changing the double click background from show options to open a new tab, double clicking the background of qttabbar does not create a new tab.
Hi, besides the first bug I posted, here's more:
1. Also, on right click, the option to open a new tab is not listed. Much guess work is needed to get a new tab opened. I guessed ctrl+n is that correct? Or is there a more proper way to create tabs?
2. The close button on tabs overlaps with the tab title if it is long enough. Example, the tab label My Computer overlaps with the [X] button. Maybe concatenate the text when the close button is present? Like on mouseover or with alt key down depending on user choice in the options it would appear like:
My Com… [X]
instead of overlapping with one another.
3. The backspace button in explorer by default behavior goes back to the previous folder. With QTTabBar installed, the backspace button now goes straight to home i.e. My Computer. The user of course expects it to go to the previous folder since it is the default behavior. Maybe a different hotkey should be assigned to go to the folder home instead of backspace.
QTAddressBar bug:
On the Address Bar, clicking the small arrows opens a drop down list of the folders. It seems that QTAddressBar does not properly sort the list in any obvious manner if the folder contains different items other than folders (example My Computer). The drop down menu items are not sorted alphabetically nor by group.
How is the list sorted? Maybe an option to fix it to alphabetize or group (folders, drives, etc. ) instead of what seems to be random listing.
QT Breadcrumbs Address Bar bug:
Error with directories that I don't have read permission! Because it opens subdirectories on mous-eover, and windows will show an error message stating that I don't have permission when it does this. Can you add a check for read permission, or change to mouse-click instead of mouse-over.
QT Breadcrumbs Address Bar bug (limitation):
Can't navigate to C$ etc. on network computer. Nothing happens when I type the address in except a Windows error beep.
QT Breadcrumbs Address Bar bug (limitation)
Can't view/navigate to hidden folders, regardless of setting in Explorer.
QT TabBar 1.2.3 b5 @ Windows 7 7232 x64:
After installing and not changing options, pressing alt twice (to show and hide the menubar) crashes explorer.
If you use the option to hide the menu bar, closing and opening a new windows shows the menu bar again.
The tab also remains empty, and when cloning the tab the following error pops up twice before closing the Explorer window:
QTTabBar failed to open
"".
THIS SCREWS UP ON WINDOWS 7 x32 also -_-
is it a bug or not yet added?
middle click on a folder in tree view under vista doesn't open a new tab
under xp middle click in tree view did his job fine
please could you fix this? I miss this feature
thanks
