Root folder

Hello all,

how does one manage to add ".." to the list of file/folders in the explorer when going in an ftp?
it's very useful imho.

Best regards,

There is no option to enabled these. In earlier versions, ".." was displayed, but that seemed to confuse the user, as they wanted Windows Explorer like list views.

mb: Maybe it makes sense to make this an option?

Anything that can be done about that? It's been 2 years.

No there are no plans to add the .. back. There are many alterantive ways to go to the parent folder:
1. Click on the button in the breadcrum
2. Click on the Up button in the toolbar
3. Use the mouse back button if you were coming from the parent folder.

You can also user the Backspace key to go one level up.

Okay. Interesting to see smartftp try to do things differently from every other client around. Some people dont like clicking buttons for every single action but ah well. At least there's choice in the ftp client world.
