1. No WSL，Windown environment。
2. Even if all other plug are blocked.
3. 3.I tried neovide/wezterm/powershell It's all useless .tfm.nvim this will work properly.

Thanks, I appreciate the effort!

Based on what you said above, I think this is what is going on:

# this worked for you 👍
yazi "D:\workspace" --local-events "rename,delete,trash,move" --chooser-file "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\nvim.0\Pu3C3j\0" > C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\nvim.0\Pu3C3j\1

# this did not work for you 👎
yazi "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\nvim\lua\plugins\yazi.lua" --local-events "rename,delete,trash,move" --chooser-file "C:/Users/Administrator/AppData/Roaming/yazi/state/yazi_filechosen/yazi_filechosen" > C:/Users/Administrator/AppData/Roaming/yazi/state/yazi.nvim.events.txt

I have a suggestion you can try:

Apply these changes to your yazi.nvim configuration:

• Change the chosen_file_path to have \ characters instead of / in the path.
• Same thing for events_file_path: have \ characters instead of /.
