    Hi!

    I'm using combination of File Explorer extensions QTabBar and Clover.
    Clover works ok.

    QTabBar is problem .
    When I select layout and close window, at new window open it shows crazy layout and looks like default 'cause no matter how I set layout, it opens again the same.
    So, this is selction of my layout:


    And after close it shows this crazy combination:


    But it is problem of Windows 10 - my friend installed following me QTabBar on Windows 7 SP1 x64 Pro and it works ok, default layout is propely sized.
    My problem is default layout - look at picture above and it is crazy mistake - it needs resizing at each opening.
    I have installed Windows 10.1803 x64 Pro.

    Thank you for each word.

    It ain't Windows fault...works fine here
    You need to double check all your settings/preferences...

        I tested QTabBar on Windows 10 virtual machine and there it works.
        So, I exported settings and then imported to real machine.
        The same problem - nothing solved.

        So, where's the way to correct it?

        Also earlier problem: How to add plugins? I tried it by browsing and also drag'n'drop - but no one plugin was integrated.

        Plugins are not so important, but layout problem makes it unusable.

        Can anybody help me?

            You are combining a bunch of aftermarket software that even in the best conditions doesn't work very well. I'm not sure what you expected.

            I'd guess that whatever software is saving the splitter bar positions between panes is not doing so properly or is perhaps not High DPI aware when either saving or loading those positions.
            I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

              Ok, understand.

              But for me is mystery why it works on Windows 7 and I tested it also on virtual machine with Windows 10.
              When I saw it working properly on VM, I exported settings and imported into real machine configuration - helped not.
              Even - plugin modules is not possible to add - no matter by d'n'd or browse.

              So, if do you think that it is normal - in my machine works not, on same Windows on VM and Windows 7 works, then ok.
              I have no choice, only to try all possible.
              I wanted to switch to this shell extension from XYplorer 'cause it is loading slowly.

                Perhaps you just need to set those tabs inside a layout? Doesn't do the trick it works only for when it's in horizontal mode, in vertical it extend beyond the smallest size.
