Programming / files (and directories) not showing up in WPS
« on: January 22, 2017, 04:22:17 am »
I recently (last week) installed from scratch ECS beta 2.2. I noticed tonight that I have a file which does not show up in the WPS drives object. It does show up in and command window with a DIR, and it does show up in Larsen Commander and FM/2 stuff, but it does not appear in a DETAILS, or any other WPS view of the directory.
This particular file is on an ECS server which I recently recreated. But I have seen the issue before locally, with entire directories not showing up in the WPS when they do show up other ways, e.g. DIR from command line and in other file managers.
Anyone have any idea what is going on, and how to fix it?
Oh - to make matters even stranger, the file that doesn't show up is a data file, and I cannot set the default action to something other than Properties and have it stick. When I double click on it (in one of the file managers like FM/2 or Larsen) it doesn't follow the association - meaning it doesn't start the program associated with the file. And when i open the properties to change the default action on open to the one associated with the file it ignores the setting and goes back to Properties.
