Start Search doesn't work correctly after changing Theme

Open GeorgeK1ng opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I just find out this bug when changing theme and using Start Search

How to achieve same bug

1] Load ViStart and use Start Search 01 2] Change theme 02 3] Try to use Start Search again and "Files" searching doesn't work 03 4] Exit ViStart and Re-Launch it and Start Search works again 04

Any idea how to fix it?

~~As I remember ViStart opens another executable to achieve file indexing. I think it's either another instance of itself or something in "plugins" folder.~~

~~I'm wondering if the slave process (the new instance) looses communication with the host process when you change a skin. If the hWnd is changed during a skin change then that is likely the problem~~

~~The slave process is probably trying to send messages to the old hWnd.~~

ViStart actually just calls Index_MyDirectory in IndexHelper to accomblish file indexing and that just iterates through the directory using FSO.
