Hello everybody

I'm using Clover (http://ejie.me/) for a couple of days with windows 10 x64 and there is a little bug with nexus ultimate.

Every time i open a folder on the dock (my computer or download or recycle bin etc...)

When i close it, it reopen right back, then i have to close it again.
This does not happen when nexus ultimate is not running.


I tried messing around with the nexus option (like do not launch multiple sessions etcc..) but nothing really worked.

Since clover seems to take over explorer.exe to make its tab browsing, i'm guessing nexus is involved at some point during the closing process, that force the same window to open again.


If anyone use windows 10 and is willing to try clover, be sure to use windows 7 compatibility mode (although this bug with nexus happen regardless of compatibility mode, clover is smoother with win7 compatibility mode)

It is not a major problem (you basically have to close every folder twice), but it would be great to make it work, clover seems great for productivity.

Thanks :mrgreen:

What happens if you add Clover to the thumbnail exclusion list? Advanced button in the Tasks tab in Nexus Preferences.

Hmmm, after reading about what clover is, you might need to exclude explorer.exe or even disable iconic thumbnails altogether (live previews will still work). If it is what I think it might be, of course.

Clover actually looks like a pretty cool program. Might have to give it a try myself.

Reporting in.

I went back to windows 8.1 x64 and clover + nexus ultimate works great.


I guess Nexus and windows 10 somehow trigger the folders to reopen after you close them.
It could also be clover but, when nexus isn't running the problem doesn't happen.


I'll stay on 8.1 x64 for now.

If i have any findings i'll report back.


Thanks

Thanks for the update... I guess this means the problem is actually Windows 10, not Clover or Nexus. :wink:

But blame me, I'm used to it! lol :wink:
