Re: Hardware: NUC

, and the W11 File Explorer and taskbar totally suck. Well, for Windows File Explore replacement there's a fantastic alternative. :) I made a test upgrade to try it by myself. Old taskbar behavior can be restored with ExplorerPatcher . The, even 7+ Taskbar Tweaker works again. It worked when I test...

Re: Hardware: NUC

If SSD is used, it is recommended to back up data to the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) frequently. I have been using SSD since 2013. I have used several SSD: 240G, 500G and 1TB. The 1T SSD used at the end of last year had problems, and more than a dozen files stored in the SSD could not be read because of ...

Awesome! I have a lot of filenames with revision numbers in them. :)

Well worth the lifetime license as XYplorer is constantly getting new features!

I got this one: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B09BKRRT2Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This is a very nice NUC! I have basically the same, except older 8th gen Bean Canyon. You have 3 HDMI 2.0-capable outputs, so you should be fine for any reasonable monitor setup. Actuall...

Re: Hardware: NUC

Yah, stick with Windows 10, Pro if you can. I just build a W11 Pro laptop for my wife, and the W11 File Explorer and taskbar totally suck. She hates it. I will build her a W10 Pro probably this summer. It's difficult/expensive to get but the LTS Enterprise versions are the most-stable and don't brea...

Renaming double-click word delimiters

Is this documented or configurable anywhere? What I'm talking about is if you edit/rename a file/directory, then double-click to select text, the word boundary/delimiters include a period, and the selection does not include the trailing space. For example, in File Explorer, "Brett's 0.9 File.tx...

Re: Open in New Window

If you don't care about saving the settings you could easily just open "Throw Away Clones" of your current instance. See File Menu. This is an interesting option and surely faster than launching a new instance and re-navigating! I assigned a keyboard shortcut to help. Contrary to File Exp...

Re: Open in New Window

'Open in New Window' in File Explorer just opens a fresh Explorer. In XYplorer, however, you probably want to open a new instance with your current configuration. But that's only possible if the configuration of the current instance is saved to disk. But that's something you might not want, or do y...

Re: Hide the tab bar when there is only one tab?

This can already be done... General - Custom Event Actions - Other events - Switch tabs, Action = Run script Sorry for being a noob, but it's not working for me: Open XYplorer = single tab and tab bar. Open another tab = two tabs and tab bar. Close tab = one tab and no tab bar. Open a new tab again...

Re: Open in New Window

You could just use a button, user command (together with a keyboard shortcut if necessary), a catalog entry with a script? Thanks for the idea, but I'm thinking more of convenience. I'm right there and don't want to mouse far to run a button. I right-click a lot and spend a lot of time in file mana...

You're not alone. I think Finder sucks... BAD. However, I fear it's a massive undertaking due to being a totally different OS and programming language.

Open in New Window

I apologize if this is a duplicate, but I couldn't find it. In XYplorer, you can 'Open in New Tab' and 'Open in Other Pane' which is great for laptops. However, there is no 'Open in New Window' like there is in Windows File Explorer. This is more useful on desktops where I am "deep" into a...

I am new to XYplorer, but I want to thank point out that since v22.80.0124 - 2022-02-16 14:27, you can finally rename FAT32 and exFAT files properly! Microsoft has broken this since ~2017 and has continued ruining File Explorer. Here's an example: If you got a file ' Person.JPG ', and you simply wan...
