Infinite loop if you select a folder you don't have access to

If you click on a folder you don't have access to such as "System Volume Information" (or sometimes an empty CD/DVD drive will work) then Explorer++ gets caught in an infinite loop. It displays an error message about being unable to enter the folder (which is correct), but you can't clear ...

Hidden files/folders not shown

I'm running into the same bug others have reported here on the forum. I've noticed Exp++ is not showing hidden files and folders, despite the fact the Exp++ settings are set to show all files. Through some testing I've found if I disable hidden files in Windows Explorer then all of a sudden Exp++ st...
