Additional file instance after update
Describe the bug When the directory of a file is open, new instance of the file is added every time it is updated (edit-save).
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- By using E++ open a directory with file "document.docx"
- Edit and save file "document.docx"
- Issue: 2 instances of file "document.docx" are in directory
Expected behavior Single instance of file "documents.docx" is in directory after update.
Version (please complete the following information):
- Explorer++ version: 1.4.0.1879 dev (64-bit build)
- OS: Windows 10 21H2
Additional context I use application in portable mode with file explorer++_x64.zip extracted in a directory. I don't know when this issue first appeared but is there for some builds now. Happens if the file is updated with application like MSOffice (Word/Excel/... ), LibleOffice (Writer/...), even if is single txt, but not if is txt and edited with Notepad, Wordpad, N++.
Can confirm. With MS Office files, this can get messy real quick. A duplicate is created everytime a file is edited&saved.
I also testet with image editing and txt files: No Dupes are created. It seems to be mostly with MS Office files.
