I want to create file credenentials.txt in folder d:/dev/GoogleDrive/_IPTV/Playlists/OttClub/

M-x C-x C-f

enter image description here

Press "c" result:

enter image description here

press "cr" result:

enter image description here

As you can see Emacs change folder to d:/personal

I don't need this. I only want to create file in folder d:/dev/GoogleDrive/_IPTV/Playlists/OttClub/

How I can do this?

P.S. I also try by -Q mode and enable only ido-mode I get same result: enter image description here Press "cr" enter image description here

As you can see Emacs automatically change folder.

  • It seems to be not the ususal ido behaviour. Can you reproduce it with emacs -Q and ido-mode enabled? – andrej Mar 29 '19 at 13:58
  • @andrej I updated my post. Not help. Same result – a_subscriber Mar 29 '19 at 17:36
  • Don't know what is going on! Seems to be a bug to me. Maybe try updating emacs? As a workaround you can press C-f (after C-x C-f) to fall back to the usual find-file – andrej Mar 29 '19 at 18:59

    Is this what you're looking for? Either set ido-auto-merge-work-directories-length to a negative value, or increase the number of seconds in ido-auto-merge-delay-time. – jagrg Mar 30 '19 at 9:53
  • @jagrg ido-auto-merge-delay-time - this help. Thanks – a_subscriber Mar 30 '19 at 10:19

You should either set ido-auto-merge-work-directories-length to a negative value, or increase the number of seconds in ido-auto-merge-delay-time.
