Excluded File Types appear as ghosted files

Post by wkrzystek » Mon Nov 02, 2009 1:43 pm

We've upgraded to Vault 5.0.1, and now I'm noticing that file types we have specified to be excluded now appear as Ghosted files in the file list. Since we've specifically stated that these file extensions shouldn't be included, why would we want to see them ghosted, cluttering up the file list? I don't have the ability to go back to a previous version and confirm that this wasn't the case but I'm pretty sure it wasn't. Is this a bug in the new version?

I wouldn't have expected ghosting to have suddenly been turned on. I'll need to run a test.

To turn the ghosting off go to Vault Tools - Options - General. In there are two ghosting options you can uncheck.

OK. This is really weird. Yesterday when I put up the post, all of my excluded files were visible as ghosted files. Today, they don't appear. Short of a reboot, I hadn't changed anything. I'm going to chalk this up as sunspots for now as I can't replicate this anymore and I've got the expected behavior back. If it happens again, I'll repost with a screen shot. Sorry for the confusion.
