XYplorer Beta Club

The string "Position: Top" is used to position your context menu entry. Basically, the entries you manually add can be put in one of 3 areas. Top, Middle (Default) and Bottom. If you set "Position: Top" it will be at the top position. Check it out here: https://stackoverflow.com/...

I finally found the issue. I find it very interesting. In "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\Folder\shell", none of the keys should have the string "Position: Top" in it. The key with the string "Position: Top" will be invoked when XYplorer is set as the default file ...

After posting my last reply, I worked on it a bit more, got frustrated to a point where I could not sit peacefully, I ended up formating the system. Before formatting, I tried running XYplorer with windows sandbox and it was very very easy to setup. Hence the issue is with my system. Let it finish f...

I played around a bit and was able to make it work partially by manually adding entries to "[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell". Got it from here: https://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?t=782 Also, now when I set XYplorer as admin through XYplorer, instead of VSCode, the command prompt i...

Exactly, I don't understand as well. Let me play around with it and see what is happening. I will update you if I find something.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Directory] @="File Folder" "AlwaysShowExt"="" "EditFlags"=hex:d2,01,00,00 "FriendlyTypeName"=hex(2):40,00,25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,52,\ 00,6f,00,6f,00,74,00,25,...

Yes, the issue is that OS is somehow not able to find XYplorer. I set XYplorer as the default file manager and I removed VS Code from its location and when I left double-clicked on the folder on the desktop, I am getting "Application not found error" Something I forgot to mention in the be...

Nope: https://ibb.co/sFYtHmv I am not sure whether I am conveying the problem correctly. I am not inside XYplorer. I am at the Desktop and when I click a folder, instead of XYplorer opening up, VS Code is opening up. Also, ```HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Shell\XYplorer``` is to add ...

Hai,

Yes I fixed the issues and rebooted but the behavior is still the same!! Double-clicking opens VS Code.

Hello there,

I am seeing some weird behavior on my system right now. Let me fix certain things and get back to you. Thanks a lot for your response.

So I guess the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE path does not exist for XYplorer?

Yes that is correct

Does it still open VSCode when double clicking on a folder on the desktop?

No. Then the explorer window opens up as usual. Only when I set XYplorer as the default manager, I am facing this issue.

Wait. I am sorry, that is wrong. Not in the XYplorer pane. Outside, say E.g. Desktop. When you set XYplorer as the default file manager, when I click on a folder on the desktop, XYplorer is supposed to open up right? Instead, VSCode is opening.

Thank you for the response.

Yes, that is true. Double click and VS Code opens up.

Hello there, I am running into a weird issue that I am not able to figure out. I have VS Code and XYplorer installed. After I set XYplorer as the default file manager through XYPlorer settings, when I click on a folder, VS Code is opening up. Any idea why this might be happening? I think some regist...
