1-2.) I'm not sure what other data I can provide. I'm using the installed version, not a portable version, and I call VirtualController.exe using the full path which should make no difference. Whether I do it from a command prompt or AntiMicro, VC opens up with an empty profile. If it's working for you, that makes no sense to me whatsoever. 4.) Just because I only want it running when I need it running. Your proposed solution sounds like a sensible one, I'd be in favor of that change. 6.) Fair enough....
1-2.) Happy to provide any additional data you request, but I've since read in another thread that, according to you, /load is broken in v1.7.0 and a prior version should be used if you need that functionality. I can confirm v1.7.2 is no different. A simple "/load vXbox1.vcd" with no other parameters still just opens an empty profile. 2-3.) My use case is to launch Virtual Controller, exit Virtual Controller, and switch between profiles using AntiMicro, my existing gamepad mapping tool. Although...
Hey, Love your program! Here are a few issues and suggestions I came up with: 1.) /load, as of the current version, appears to do nothing. Specifying a profile filename that exists and is located in the default profiles folder just loads an empty profile even when I order my command-line arguments as the readme suggests. 2.) Even if /load worked, it would run in a separate instance. The purpose of /load, I assume, is to change profiles on the fly, so perhaps another parameter, /hotswap, could be...
Like Maverick, this is one of two issues standing in the way of me permanently migrating to PeaZip. Not only should files be editable, all relevant file management options you're currently hiding inside archives (like New Folder and Rename) should be supported.
This may be a limitation of 7-Zip (is it still in 2017?), but it's definitely not a limitation of zip and other formats. I suggest implementing the correct, logical behavior for formats that support it, and for those that don't, inform the user and ask if they'd like to add their files to the archive root instead.
File management keyboard shortcuts should match the OS
Use unique menu accelerators in context menu
Show icons when context menu cascading is disabled
