client & Locate Inside MC
« on: July 22, 2017, 02:45:31 am »
Running a client works fine, but when I right click to Locate a file Inside MC I get an error. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

"Locate (Inside MC)" uses MC's internal file explorer to show the file at its physical disk location. The exact same as "Locate (external)", but shown inside MC rather than launching Windows Explorer to show you the file.

It's possible, by setting up network shares, for the client to be able to see the files on the drives, but if not, then the file comes from the server, and then there's no way a client could access the actual file served, on disk, so both of those "Locate" options would be expected to fail.
