Unsolicited reaction to latest updates

The last few versions mark a watershed for XYplorer, at least for my personal needs. A few of the enhancements really improve its usability and "livability" for me, so I'd like to say "thanks" -- and then ask for more. The improvements to the toolbar are largely cosmetic, but I t...

Re: Tough words about GUI

Regarding Windows' "My Xyz" folders, I think the problem isn't so much with the names (a rose by any other name...) but with the organization paradigm it creates. Guiding people into organizing their files by the tool in which they were created makes no sense; it's like organizing my house...

Re: delay (20 second+) when typing in address bar

A typical usecase for me is to grab the path for a file into the clipboard (e.g., c:\mydirectory\myfile.txt) from a server alert email or something.
