FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: On windows 10 fcalc and PopQuotes make FARR crash...

« on: August 03, 2022, 07:30 PM »

I know this is extremely old, but I sometimes run into the same issue when trying to load the plugin config page.

Find And Run Robot / Re: FARR and Dropbox - conflicts...

« on: August 03, 2022, 06:02 PM »

A decade later, but thanks for .\%COMPUTERNAME% option, it really helps with multiple computer syncing.

The other thought would be if #filecontents worked on ini files, to split out different sections of the config.
HomeAssistant for example uses that structure, it loads the main config file, and then subsections can either be loaded from a second file, or can be in the main config directly:
 
EX:
[Information]
File Identification=Super Happy Find and Run Robot

[Windows: windows.ini]
[Settings]



(At least for me, what usually changes is the [Windows] subsection of FindAndRunRobot.ini

Find And Run Robot / Re: FARR slow searching/pauses - tips

« on: July 18, 2021, 01:15 PM »

I realize that far makes a lot of directory queries when it's searching for something to launch, is it possible for it  to look up directly the MFT, how search everything does? https://www.voidtools.com/

Find And Run Robot / Re: A similar function to Listary's Quick Switch function?

« on: May 14, 2020, 08:09 PM »

I really like this feature in Listary!

I use FARR to launch programs, and have listary running to jump to folders.
(I also have search everything + FARR for file searching, and an autohotkey script to search between open windows)

Is it possible to request a feature where it will launch the application if the window doesn't exist?

Agreed, this would be useful

Thanks!
This really matters for chrome - I want it as a way to alert me when some tab suddenly has a memory leak and uses much more ran than expected. 

Right now, there is one chrome process that has a gig of working memory, but its private memory is half that, which is really the stat that matters.

It lets me track working memory, or virtual memory, but not private memory.

I'd love if it tracked private memory usage rather than total - so I could tell when a chrome tab is taking up a ton of memory for example

Found it!
After a few hours of testing - deleting the Timezone plugin fixes my problem.  *no* idea why that would be the case. 
Now if I could just get FARRAltTab to always load.... https://www.donation....msg405013#msg405013

I've had FARR synced via dropbox for probably 8 years? It just means if theres a setting corruption, it's been synced between all my devices. 
I may just reinstall from scratch and see if that fixes things. 
Just donated to you btw, I've loved FARR! <3

This behavior always happens, on two computers (admittedly using the same FARR settings synced via dropbox), I've checked the keyboard interface tab - result hot keys are set to Launch.

Tried it with the latest High DPI version.  I've tried every perumtation of the Window Options and Launching Files options I can think of.  I swear it used to work fine, but I can't remember when it stopped working.  Using the portable version.

Not sure what changed, but for some reason FARRAltTabRCW.dll now works on Windows 10 for me. *Shrug*

I found a few replacements, but they do run much slower:
Switcher - http://insentient.net/
Switcheroo - http://www.switcheroo.io/ - Graphical
iswitchw - fastest - https://github.com/tvjg/iswitchw

Wish this was updated for more modern versions of windows.  Anyone have an alternative, either for FARR or a similar tool?

FARR Plugins and Aliases / Re: FARR plugin: FARR Remember The Milk 1.1.2

« on: October 07, 2011, 03:06 PM »

I'm using this plugin, and really love it - I switched from launchy to FARR for this plugin.  The only downside I have is - is there any way to have offline functionality? Right now, if I try and add a task and my machine is not connected to the internet, it asks to re authenticate and loses my added task.
