Release v2.2.2
[v2.2.2] – 2026-05-26
Upgrading from an earlier version? Total Commander keeps an
already-configured detect string when a plugin is replaced, so
users coming from v2.1.0 or earlier won't automatically pick up
the new universal file-type support — see
Upgrading from an Earlier Version inREADME.md.
Added
- Auto-fallback from quick to full mode for Office documents the
preview handler refuses to render. Files synced from a SharePoint
site in a non-primary Microsoft 365 tenant typically fail in quick
mode with HRESULT0x80004005(E_FAIL) or0x80004001(E_NOTIMPL) —
the preview handler's sandboxed surrogate process can't authenticate
cross-tenant. This is an Office-side limitation that affects
Windows Explorer's Alt+P / Preview Pane the same way; it isn't
specific to TCOfficeView. When this happens TCOfficeView now
silently retries the preview by launching the real Office
application in the background (which runs as the user with full
auth tokens and usually succeeds). Controlled per application from
a new[AutoFallback]INI section —Word=true/Excel=true/
PowerPoint=true(default for all three). Auto-fallback only
kicks in when the application is in thequick-switchablemode
(the default); explicitquickmode opts the application out.
Mark-of-the-Web-blocked files keep their dedicated Unblock
fallback panel — they are intentionally excluded from auto-
fallback because opening them in the real Office app would
bypass Protected View. SeeREADME.md→ Configuration →
Auto-Fallback for Multi-Tenant SharePoint Documents. - User-initiated mode switch suppresses auto-fallback. When
the user clicks the→ Quickoverlay button on a document that
auto-fell-back to full at load time, the click is now treated as
an explicit "I want quick mode here" instruction — auto-fallback
is skipped so the click does not silently bounce the document
back to full mode. Instead the quick fallback panel is shown
(with an Office-specific explanation of why the preview handler
refuses the file) and the overlay button flips to→ Fullso
the user can return to full mode deliberately. - Office-aware text in the generic fallback panel. For Word,
Excel and PowerPoint files the "preview handler failed" message
now lists the common causes (SharePoint cross-tenant sync,
corrupted document, broken Office install) and notes the
Explorer-Alt+P-parity behaviour. When the file's application
is in a switchable mode, a→ Fullbutton hint is included.
