The following is a list of known issues in the release version.

All: ADC Systems Pica View context menu thumbnail support

To correctly display the Pica View thumbnails in context menus opened within Magellan Explorer you must check the Compatibility Mode option in Pica View's preferences.

Windows XP: Changing background colors on toolbars in may not work

Magellan Explorer 3.0 uses Windows XP theme functionality (if enabled) to draw the toolbars. This means that you cannot configure the background colors of the main toolbar, navigation bar, quick bar or drive bar in the preferences unless you use the Windows Classic theme.

All: Remote FTP file modified time may not be correct

Magellan Explorer 3.0 will attempt to determine the time zone of the remote computer and compare this to the time zone of your computer when displaying file times for files on remote FTP servers. However, most FTP servers offers no way to determine the time zone and they will be assumed to be on UTC/GMT time, which may not be correct. This is ultimately a limitation in the FTP protocol and there is only so much we can do.

All: Importing 2.x config only imports first 3 custom tools

The trial version of Magellan Explorer 3.0 is limited to 3 custom tools. Importing your existing 2.x configuration into 3.0 will therefore only import the first 3 tools. If you have a 3.0 license you can force a re-import of your 2.x configuration, assuming you did not delete it, after the license key has been entered by exiting Magellan Explorer and deleting your existing configuration in the registry using regedit.exe. Once you start Magellan Explorer you will be asked whether to import your 2.x configuration again. The configuration is located at the following location:
