Bug: shared favorites folder on NAS

Hello,

So I am using smartFTP with the shared-favorites folder feature on my NAS (synology).
Steps to recreate:

1. Have smartFTP with a shared-favorites folder on a network hdd or any other external source.
2. Disconnect your PC form the source (the network)
3. Start smartFTP
4. Go to tools>>edit
5. The shared folder (on the left) can be clicked but nothing happens
6. The folder cannot be deleted
7. If one should right-click on it and press properties the program will crash.
8. Even if the source is reconnected the folders stays off.

This is a realistic scenario, as I have my shared folders on my NAS and sometimes it takes the computer a while to connect to the NAS.
There should at least be an icon or some sort of information that the folder cannot be found...

>crash
confirmed. Will be fixed in the next build.

>icon
In the next version an icon is displayed even if the network folder is currently unavailable. There will be no special indicator/icon in this case.

Thank you for reporting these bugs.

The new version is available now:
https://www.smartftp.com/download

It also improves performance with the favorites browser, most notably when using shared favorite folders.
