There are quite a few changes and bugfixes in version 11.50. Complete list of changes.

New functions in Total Commander 11.50:

General:

• File lists: Option to show seconds in the date/time field
• File lists: Shorten date/time with "..." when the value is too long for the available space

• Drive list (cm_OpenDrives): Show volume labels/descriptions behind drive letters
• Recycle bin (cm_OpenRecycled): Show original location of deleted files in comment view
• Thumbnails view: Show thumbnails of link (.lnk file) targets instead of link files themselves, e.g. links to photos
• Menu: Use icon defined in em_command, but only from wcmicons.dll or .ico files or from the main program, for speed reasons (virus scanners)
• Configure button bar/single button or configure internal command: New button "->.ico" to extract single icon from .exe/.dll/.icl
• Everything: Support network drives when getting folder sizes with option "Automatic, only with 'Everything'"
• Change directory via "cd" command: Append \: to go to the parent and place cursor on directory or archive
