Crash using Favourites on a network drive.
Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 3:35 amJim...let me start by telling you how much I appreciate this utility. It is the best out there and I use it all the time. And if I may say, Lang may yer lum reak! (My mother is from Edinburgh)
With that said, I am experiencing a crash when I restart the app after saving the session. This may be a problem that is specific to my situation as I am using a Windows XP Pro machine on a Mac OS X (Panther) network with windows file sharing enabled. The problem is as follows.
1. I open a folder on the server via the My Network Place icon.
2. I save the session and close BRU. (I have "Store Pathname" checked)
3. I then open BRU again and it crashes immediately.

The report claims the problem is related to Shell32.dll, but I don't know if that has any significance.
I have noticed if I remove the "Favourite Path" registry entry, the app starts working again.
If I map the drive locally to X: (for example), I can save that path as a favourite and it works without error.
