RE: Side effect of unchecking all drive types

Hi Folks,

Just to pick upo that old thread again:

It also happens in normal explorer and I think I can explain why. It can be
reproduced easily if you tell Explorer to store windows/paths upon shutdown.

All drive types are unchecked.
One of my include paths is: D:\Delphi_Projects\*
Explorer view shows tree on the left hand side and folders on the right hand
side.

- Navigate to D:\Delphi_Projects\MyProject\Subfolder\
  -> all overlay icons are shown.
- Shutdown and reboot PC
- Explorer comes back in D:\Delphi_Projects\MyProject\Subfolder\
  -> no overlay icons are shown, even after waiting a minute.
- Click on D:\Delphi_Projects\ in the left explorer tree
  -> All overlay icons are immediately painted recursively.

It looks like the shell extension only fetches overlays, when the root
folder of the include path is activated. This is exactly the same behaviour
as in the IDE, where "Save as..." opens the file save dialog in a subpath of
the include path.

Is it possible that the shell or the crawler only start when the exact
include path and not one of its subpaths is requested?

Cheers
- Lübbe
