  Hi
  
  When using the Alternative menu and selecting open in new window or open the containing folder and then choosing a recent file -
  I was expecting it to open the selected file in a new explorer window - instead it opens the recent file in it's default app.
  
  Please support an option to toggle/enable this behaviour.

  Hi Avi,
  
  The "Open the containing folder" does open the containing folder, not the file. Normally, because, as you know, there is a bug at this time.
  
  The "Open in new window" alternative menu feature is intended for folders (opening in a new Windows Explorer instead of the active one). For documents (from the Recent files or any other menu), QAP does open the file in a new window of the native app (same as if you would open it directly from the regular QAP menu). But you can use the "Open the containing folder" if you wish to open the folder of the document (when this will be fixed).

  Ah great, If it'll do that, then that's what I need

  I'll move this thread in the Support section and let you know when "Open the containing folder" is fixed.
  
  Are you subscribed to the Beta testers forum? You're good at catching bugs :-)

  Just subscribed
  
  On that note - I've added DiagMode=1 but I see there's no stack trace in the Diag file - All I have is an An Ahk error window image
  - Is there a way to enable stacktraces in QAP ? or what's the correct way of submitting runtime errors ?
  
  P.s - I'm using a variation of this for simple stacktraces..

  I use DiagMode=1 with users helping me to collect info on QAP execution to help diagnose a bug. It is not intended to be used without my instructions.
  
  Thanks for the tip about call stack. I'm not familiar with this. I'll have to take a look.
