I was confused by your wording here, you wrote "after running DN2" but I think you meant *when* running DN2 then in the application only directories are visible.

If I am correct in that then I fixed that bug. It also affected 7-Zip which wants to get all files for a * pattern, but EDR-DOS's 714Eh/714Fh exposed the DOSism that *.* is required to get all files and * only finds files without a dot in their name. 7-Zip, however, does globbing itself to postprocess the DOS found files and it interprets *.* as meaning "only files with a dot in their name", unlike DOS.

Please test with my build that will be updated later today (in 22h from now), at https://pushbx.org/ecm/download/old/edrdos/20230820.zip
