PM6 no longer showing system folders at top of navigator
« on: June 18, 2019, 03:32:29 PM »
Hi
I'm assuming this behaviour change is an oversight in PM6?
Please compare the attached images of the navigator panels from when I open PM5 vs PM6.
A couple of the Windows system folders appear half way down the list in PM6 and the alphabetical listing (sort by name) isn't correct when you first load. To correct this I have to change the sort by option to descending name order then revert it to ascending name order but the behaviour doesn't stick when I reload PM6.
PM5 loads it correctly from the start.
Dell XPS15 running Windows 10, PM6 build 3291
Thanks,
Joel.

PM5 doesn't look sorted correctly to me either.

It's minor in 5 (only four system folders on desktop and they're grouped together) so it didn't bother me before.
In 6 it's disruptive!

Thanks for sorting - confirmed the fix in 6 plus now works perfectly. Presume same will follow in standard version of v6?

Yes, the next build will have the fix.  It just didn't make it in time for the last build.
