-On the next major update, we have scheduled to change the framework requirement to version 4.8 or later.
-Fix installer msi file. (2020/12/26)
Well, 1043 is a no go for me!
Not only did Build 21279 severely fubar Windows Blinds, 1043 severely fubar's File Explorer!!!
Remember to reboot between installs or un-installs or the shell hooks won't release.
Okay...,
I actually got 1043 to look half decent...
However, I had to switch to Light Mode in Settings, which I can't tolerate, Dark Mode leaves too many black elements all over the place!
But, at least I can get the tab font color to match!
I had to create a Tab skin cuz GDI and GDI+ or Classic just doesn't work!
I do like Extra View Left having a Navigation Pane. I like the Cloud on the tab icons that depict tabs in a group, very nice!
This thread caught my eye as I was about to post my own thread --
I do have some years of experience wrestling this [potentially] wonderful app ...
tldr: After checking back every year or so since ~ 2013-14-15? to see how Quizo and his app are doing,
I end up uninstalling it and going back to Quizo's homely sister --
QTTabBar_1.5.0.0 beta 2 by Paul Accisano (mea culpa the misogynist reference).
still apparently available from :
Download QTTabBar 1.5.0.0 Beta 2
I only install QTTabBar for those rare occasions I have to go through the MS gate (Control Panel, etc),
b/c otherwise I'm dancing with the finest partner ever known to call themselves a file .... -- Directory Opus.
So best of luck to Quizo as well as all those who hope to [one fine day]
taste the fruits of his labors --
as for me, I drink fine wine directly from the bottle labeled dOpus,
and save my lips from trying to suck blood from the stone of <This PC>.
last edit: I also wanted to confirm the post by several others
who apparently had the same experience of crashes, hangs, etc.,
and who also then decided to use the Accisano version.

I don't see QTTabBar as a file manager per se..., I think it adds versatility and functionality to file explorer more than anything else, but not so much a file manager in the true sense of the word.
