It seems great, thank you! It also fixes a bug that I was going to report 😄 If I tried to navigate to a folder with “=” (equality sign) in the name _from the Launch Apps bar_, Listary 4 couldn’t handle it and used to open Windows Explorer at my User folder (or to AppData, not sure anymore). The same didn’t happen if I used Listary directly from Windows Explorer. But I guess it doesn’t matter anymore 😀 ---

How about the option to backup / restore the menus? I’ve recently done a clean OS install and lost all my favourite folders. ---

Thanks for the update. I almost started thinking it won’t be released. I found some problems. - Open some folder in Windows Explorer, type `cmd`, press `enter`. Cmd window pops out in the Listary’s folder in Program Files, whereas it should be started in the current folder. - Custom commands are executed in Listary’s folder in Program Files. Is it possible to create custom command so that it would start in current folder? ---

Hello Channing, many thank for the new Listary 5 Version. When Listary is running: Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V do not work correct with DOpus. Examples: F2 to Rename Ctrl+C to Copy the Name in Clipbaord Editor -\> Ctrl+V to Paste the Name Ctrl+C on a file Ctrl+V to Copy (Duplicate) the file I use the Shortkey win + - to open the Listary Symbolbar, when i pressing win + - to open the Listary Symbolbar the Miracast Dialog in Windows 10 was open additionally. (Project to a connected Screen) In Listary 4 there was a hotkey to run an Application, in Listary 5 i don’t found a hotkey to run a Application, can you please add a Hotkey to run an Application in Listary 5? Thank You Sorry for my bad Englisch Greetings wazlaf ---

Hello Channing, one Question please. When I use the Device Manager to Change a Driver for a Device, Listary will open it own Search. How can i disable this.

This is by design. The second time you press Ctrl twice, Listary switches to launcher mode. ---

Nice. I like that beta 😄 Some suggestions: In ABC Keywords, Web tab: It would be nice if I could choose the web browser the keyword is starting with. Is there a way to add custom columns into the search result? so that I for example add the “Date modified” column and can sort quickly for the newest file on top? I miss (simple) regex in the search field What I especially like: - mkdir - verrry cool - the Custom tab in ABC Keywords… especially the checkbox “Run as administrator” - error reporting 😉 Dan ---

> [@wazlaf\_havel](#): > > I know but it is possible to create a extra Hotkey for this Feature. I understand this as feature to launch apps, for example, from inside Directory Opus, without having to press Ctrl twice to open it, then Ctrl twice to change to launcher. It could be useful to have a hotkey again to open straight to launcher. What do you think? Thanks [Next page](https://discussion.listary.com/t/listary-5-beta-5-00-2334/2408.md?page=2)
