Hello Pierre,
thank you a lot for your reaction. You're true, if I hide some extensions in settings, it seems to be in my own competence (risk) to not delete folders with hidden data. In spite of that, I think deleting of folders in this case is a "delicate" point. My opinion is that produce and saving of data is one of the main goals of IT. In last there was allways tendence to protect data, although sometimes it makes little bit complitacted using. We all make a mistakes and it is not only problem of "us" but a problem of our brain. So, the good praxis, by my meaning, is to make systems "mistakes proof". My own concrete experience is this: I started using your aplication on the Linux and made some initial settings. One of them was setting of hiding non graphical files, because I meant it is a good idea. I used to use the aplication a for a few weeks. After that I decided to do some managing of data on drive. I started to do order and cleaned some directories. Until I made some destructive operations when files were irrevocably deleted, I remembered the setting from last. Good message is that absolute injuries was not so big for me, but this experience prompted me to formulate this message for you. I really think deleting of directory in your aplication is so delicate (because possibility of do mistake) that aplication has to warn the user if there are activated filters in the moment of folder erasing. Another way would be to inform user about filters activated permanently in the explorer. Maybe this is what is just missing. Please try to consider it again really. It is my opinion and you may have another meaning. I am absolutly sure I am NOT the only one user on the world whose brain works same as mine, it is psychology. I think the users will evaluate the quality of aplication better if they will have positive experiences only. I like your aplication very much and I mean it is one of the best these times. I would be happy if I can help improve this SW as one of your sitisfied users.![:)]( "Smile")
Have a good day!
