Re: How to get XYPlorer to open up new window

I stumble upon this post, while I (and as I see a LOT of others) always see XYplorer open a new window when we click on a tab. We just want XYplorer to open the folder in the SAME window and nobody seems to know how to do it. So I am really surprised that you DO seem to know, while WE have the answe...

Re: Windows Set File Associations Ignored?

Re: Windows Set File Associations Ignored?

I did this in Windows Explorer, I did it in Xyplorer and I did it in the cfa-list in pc-settings (standard apps).
