i tried this:

Hi,

You have it in QFileSystemModel's documentation:

@tree->setRootIndex(model->index(QDir::currentPath()));@

[Abdeljalil]

@
fileSystemModel = new QFileSystemModel(this);
ui->fileSystemView->setModel(this->fileSystemModel);
fileSystemModel->setRootPath(QDir::homePath());
ui->fileSystemView->setRootIndex(fileSystemModel->index(QDir::currentPath()));
@
now nothing is showing in the view at all, empty view!

You are setting the model's root path to QDir::homePath() and the view's root index to the index of QDir::currentPath()

sorry, i'm new to that
what should i do exactly?

Use homePath in both cases
