Hello again,

I also have a suggestion for the next version of Alc120 if there will be one:
please add the following option to the preferences:

[x] do not cache list of images mounted to virtual drives


I for one do not use alc120 to mount the same images over and over, so for me, a list of "old" images which are usually long gone from my hard drive is useless and actually somewhat of an annoyance and/or security risk. I don't necessarily want my wife to see that the last image I mounted was "XXX girl on girl action" or something like that ohmy.gif

Also it makes navigating the right-click context menu more difficult because sometimes Alc120's menu gets in the way of the menu item I am actually trying to select because it opens up very big due to a long image name being mounted.

Please add the option to NOT remember these lists.
Thanks! biggrin.gif

If you dont want your wife to know, why not just change the name to something else? If she's not into computers, then name it something like Manual Pro 3X. If not, then just put it in a folder and set the folder options to hide it, or even better........Dont leave it on the computer.

yes of course I can do that (and I do already use that method). but thats not really the point-- I think this would still be a good option, and would save time and there are other reasons mentioned in my 1st post that would also make this a nice feature to have. cool.gif

How about having the choice to turn it on or off depending on your situation?

Personally I could think of say adding a refresh button should do kind of the same thing.

yes I agree... the user should of course be able to choose whether to turn this on or off.
