Rename crashed PM 4.5

[Marty Ojaste]

If Pm 4.5 is open with a navigator window showing and you rename a folder within PM or Windows Explorer, PM 4.5 crashes.

It is repeatible.

The error I get is,

Marty,

If Pm 4.5 is open with a navigator window showing and you rename a folder within PM or Windows Explorer, PM 4.5 crashes.

It is repeatible.

It is a well-known issue.  I am writing a new Navigator that doesn't have this problem.  It is getting closer to completion.

If you have the Favorites pane hidden, show it.  The crashes will likely go away.

Kirk-

will the new Navigator be for OS X also, or just Windows?

Just Windows.  The Mac version has been very stable for a long time now.

I get this problem too with the navigator window open. Any idea when a fix will be available? I am currently cataloguing many directories and having that window closed is a nuisance!

Make sure you have the Favorites window open as well and the crashing should stop.

I guess its the similar issue:

when I create with the windows explorer a new folder, PM crashes also.

I'll now try to keep open the favourites like kirk said.
