Directory Opus 13: Highlights 

Ditto for me. Bought my first copy for Amiga and have not looked back.

Me three

And four. The single most useful piece of software I've ever used.

lol, came here to say this too =P #GoodTimes

My pc operation revolves around Dopus and thats just truth. If im not gaming im using Dopus in some fashion

Same here.

Similar to me! VIC-20, C64 then onto Amiga 500, then my brother got 500+, i then bought an A1200 and later 060 GPU/HDD/SCSI upgrades for it etc. I still have those 3 machines but only the A1200 gets any use, no idea if the others even boot up still, probably all corroded by now.

In Preferences / File Display / Status Bar, use the Samples button on the right to reset it to the Opus 13 defaults. (If you’re using a custom status bar, copy the relevant line out of there, then revert back to your original status bar config and paste it in.)

There's no longer a Light/Pro distinction; if you have 13 you have what would've been called "Pro" before. SFTP should carry over if you upgraded an existing licence with it. If you bought a completely new licence instead, or upgraded the wrong one, please contact our sales email address and they will fix things up for you! It's also possible that you're still using a trial/beta certificate and just need to install the purchased one via Help > Licence Manager in the program. Please let us know if you still have an issue.

New model is AUD $25/year for updates. As before, you get a perpetual licence for any version you’re paid for. After 13 took so long, with some features sitting on our machines for five years before anyone could benefit from them, we want to stop doing huge releases that take years to come out, and instead put out features as soon as they’re ready.

Yes, Opus 13 will read configs from Opus 12 and convert them over where required. That includes restoring older config backups, as well as installing 13 over 12. You can't go back the other way, though (Opus 12 won't understand every aspect of an Opus 13 config), so we recommend doing a config backup in Opus 12, then install 13 over the top. If you need to go back to 12 for any reason, you can use that config backup. Note that uninstalling Opus will remove the config, but also isn't required to install 13 over 12.

@@directoryopus Sounds good, I'm gonna buy it now, this software is an absolute game changer, I've used Opus for nearly a decade and couldn’t work without it.

Columns to show data extracted from .MD files should be possible with a bit of scripting. If you post some examples to the forum, we might be able to help (although it could take a little while as we're working through lots of feedback after the release; someone else there may help sooner). -- For grouping by individual tag, each item can only be in one group at the moment, so it would require some changes. We'll put that on the ideas list. I can't promise if/when we'll do it but I agree it could be useful sometimes.

@@directoryopus There is an example in the Obsidian Properties help. Now Obsidian is gaining great popularity and every year this popularity will only grow. I’m not a programmer, but as far as I understand, no one has dealt with this issue yet, since there is no single YAML format for md. But it seems to me that the file manager who is the first to come up with this format and implement it, at least in a limited form, for example, compatible with Obsidian, will be the first to attract the attention of users of Obsidian, Typora, and others. There are already some Dopus-compatible extensions, such as MarkdownShellExtensions (github), but they cannot do this yet. Please do not pay attention to the translator's profanity, and I am not registered on your forum, since I have not previously had any questions about the program.

Yes, even if trials for previous versions have expired, installing 13 will start a fresh trial period.

Forum thread for same question: resource.dopus.com/t/see-all-files/49606

Install 13 over the top of 12 and your old settings will be preserved / converted. We recommend doing a config backup in 12 first, just in case.

One way that could happen is if a Copy Filter was turned on (and didn’t match any of the files). We made it easier to see when the filter is on in recent versions, making the Copy button icon change to show a filter. (May require updating toolbars, if using custom ones. Please ask on the forum if you need help with that.)

Check that you don't have lots of (or any huge) file collections accumulating, as that can slow things down. Other than that, it's most likely to be a problem caused by a shell extension something has installed. The FAQs on our forum have details on how to track down that kind of thing. You can also try Opus 13 for free before buying it, if you want to.

@@directoryopus I had a suspicion that it was caused by the Folder Tree. Googled around and found an old thread with similar issue pointing to folder Tree trying to load network drives. I don't have any network drive, but I turned off folder Tree anyway to test. And immediately UI speed returned to normal. Switching tabs between top/bottom panes no longer lagged. 😮 Not sure why. 🤔 I'll try v13. Do I have to uninstall v13 though, if I want to go back to v12.33? Or can I just install v12 over it? Thanks.

Could you elaborate on that?

Yes, Win10 is still supported (and what I use myself for my main machine; really not a fan of Windows 11).

Yes, other currencies are handled automatically via the payments system, which will tell you the price in your currency before you buy. (To get an approximate conversion ahead of time, type "10 AUD in USD", into Google, changing 10 to the amount you need to convert.)

Maybe one day but all our focus is on the Windows version today and for the foreseeable future.
