BUG: New drive diaolg won't go away [solved]

Postby Bacchus66 » Fri Dec 20, 2024 7:20 pm

Since I installed 4.0.0.3, any time the "A New Drive has been Detected Dialog .. " shows up, such as when I stick in a USB drive, or when my NAS drives temporarily appear to have disappeared for some reason, it won't go away. Whether I click yes or no to the Do you want to refresh question, the dialog just blinks and re-appears. Further, the app will not even shut down if I go to the task bar and select "close all windows" from the BRU taskbar icon. I have to go to task Manager and choose "End Process" to shut it down. I am on Window 10 22H2 if that matters.

I should note that I don't know if it would go away if I clicked yes or no in direct response to it appearing (ie within a few moments at most). I usually have BRU running in the background, rather than constantly starting it and closing it, so the dialog usually appears when I'm doing something else. Which means it can be a while before I notice it's presence the next time I need to rename something.

Thanks,

Unable to confirm on my end.
Win7 x64, BRU x86

I plug in a USB flash drive, I'm prompted to add, I accept, it's added the the folder three, & that's it.

I can see the drive contents, & can exit BRU as expected.

Hi, what version of Windows? Could the issue be related to the dialog appearing but it is not clicked away while the drive "connects/disconnects" multiple times?

In the latest version, drive detection can be disabled in the program preferences.

Sorry for my delayed reply, but thanks for that.I thought I had replied to the windows question late the day after XMas but it looks like I didn't click send or something.

In any case my reply was to confirm that it was Windows 10 as noted in OP. Also that yes it could certainly be multiple disconnects/reconnects as I do not routinely uses USB drives but do have a local NAS. Those disconnects do happen between my CPU and my NAS if there is a power burp. Both are on separate backup power, but neither the router nor the hub that is between them have backup power. Still, I usually don't get that many in such a short time frame as to be that noticeable and usually the disconnect affects Windows Explorer as well. However that was certainly a possibility. I actually got my first (or maybe second?) such notice re a new drive since then today. While there was only one that went away with a single click, it did remind me to check this thread.

I'll download the new version now.

Thanks again!
