Automatic Reading: RAR archive issue

Help & Support
1

...and Hello again.

I've set Automatic Reading / Zip files and other archives: to Prevent loading. However, I'm lately getting a lot of prompts to enter a password for RAR encrypted files (haven't tried other encrypted archives). This didn't occur as far as I remember. Example:

  1. I try opening a RAR-encrypted file.
  2. It asks for the password, I click Abort and get "failed to open" etc.
  3. I quit DOpus and re-launch it.
  4. It asks for the password right away (it shouldn't, right?).
  5. If I click Abort, I now get the "This archive has not been loaded automatically because..." etc.

But it has already been loaded.

DOpus 13.15, Windows 10

Many thanks for the report! That has been fixed for the next beta.

Thanks for fixing it. I am still getting some "remnants" of this issue however, less frequent of course. Can't pinpoint it yet, but it usually happens when I've already accessed that archive and afterwards leaving that workspace by selecting another Tab Group which clears all previous tabs. The new Tab Group does not contain an archive at all so it must trigger something from before.

It somehow triggers a password prompt from the previously accessed archive. I click Abort/Ignore and the new Tab Group is opened normally.

I am also not sure what kind of difference is at play here, when:
a) we are directly at the archive's location
b) we are on a folder deeper within the archive
