Confirmation for what actions exactly?
For example, removal of files and folders

Replying to mcgiwer:
For example, removal of files and folders
Cannot confirm. Work fine for me.
Please check you configuration.

That strange. I use the recent avaliable on my AntiX (build on Debian with codename "bookworm) version of mc, in the settings -> confirmations everything is unchecked and while removal of many files or folders, it ask if I'm sure to remove them 🤔

What version of mc is that? Did you check permissions on the configuration directories?
comment:6 Changed 7 months ago by mcgiwer
The latest version of mc avaliable thru Debian's repository is wroten (when displaying thru the dpkg) as "3:4.8.29-2"

The latest is 4.8.31 and it's available in Debian testing. We also have backports on our Binaries page.

I had messaged the repository maintainer for an update, but for now there is no answer or confirmation
comment:9 Changed 7 months ago by zaytsev
Why would you do this? You could install the latest version from the binaries page I mentioned if you don't want to compile from source.

Confirmation for what actions exactly?
There is no any changes related to confirmations in the codebase for a very long time.
Probably, your settings are not saved. Please check permissions for all mc configuration directories and files in your home directory: ~/.config/mc, ~/.cache/mc, ~/.local/share/mc.
