After updating to the latest JCE editor version Pro 2.9.92 we get an error on all our sites when trying to open the file manager / browser:

Error: Attention -> error

URL: administrator/index.php?option=com_jce&view=browser

In the console:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500
index.php?option=com_jce&view=browser:1 Autofocus processing was blocked because a document already has a focused element.

I have the same problem. JCE 2.9.92

I checked, the last working version is pkg_jce_pro_2989.

I'm not able to reproduce this in JCE Pro 2.9.92. There was a similar issue in JCE Pro 2.9.91 with the File Browser (Components - JCE Editor Pro -> File Browser) but this was fixed in 2.9.92

Can someone send me a login? - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/contact/site-login

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Ryan

Please try uninstalling JCE Pro 2.9.92 and re-installing.

Uninstalling and reinstalling did not work for me. Ik have just send you login details for our demo site.

Ryan

The error was caused by a bug with Directory Filters. This has been fixed in JCE Pro 2.9.93 Beta 1 - https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/downloads/editor/pro/development

Hi,
I installed the 2.9.93 Beta 1.. but still my folders are gone in the file manager...

edit: its the one under "image and links" 

Ryan

but still my folders are gone in the file manager...

Please explain what you mean by this. Are all the folders gone or just folders you are expecting to see. By default Images and Links will use the “images” folder as it’s root folder.

there is only the "startseite"  and "= Folders" (see image 1).
I cant choose another folder.

yesterday (before the update) there were all the folders (like in image 2, image manager)

@mr.anh.ngoc - On the site you sent the login for, I can see all the folders with the "images" directory.

I am still seeing the full folder list for both of the Images & Links fields. Please clear your browser cache.

I cleared the path to the intro image, saved the article and then click to choose a new one and the folders are back again... no clue what kind of behavior this is...

Ryan

I cleared the path to the intro image, saved the article and then click to choose a new one and the folders are back again

That's a great clue. I will investigate with this scenario.
