Re: XY64: UI corrupted after using floating preview

I know you are aware of this bug and would just like to add that the garbled graphics do affect the Windows Taskbar as well (I added the orange rectangles for privacy reasons): error_2.png Whatever is causing the XYplorer surface to get corrupted, it also corrupts a Windows component or the graphics...

[fixed] x64 crashes when encountering NTFS junctions with long targets (>=113 characters)

While browsing my zigbee2mqtt folder, XYplorer (x64 v27.90.0032) suddenly crashed without an error message. After a lot of trial and error, I found that an NTFS junction with a long target >=113 characters caused the crash. Furthermore, EnableCustomFileIcons can make things worse. How to replicate t...

Re: Drag & Drop to inactive tabs in the inactive pane doesn't activate that tab

Damn, I forgot to report the version information (x64 v27.90.0032) I just opened a fresh instance, activated Dual Pane, clicked on the "Documents" tab in the upper pane and dragged a file onto the "Desktop" tab in the lower pane ("Desktop" and "C:\" were prese...

[solved] Drag & Drop to inactive tabs in the inactive pane doesn't activate that tab

When doing drag & drop, hovering the mouse cursor over an inactive tab in the active pane will make XYplorer switch to that tab. This feels natural and it allows dropping source files/folders into subfolders of the target tab. With Dual Pane view, XYplorer does not switch to (or activate) inacti...

Re: When the mouse hovers over a tab, it automatically activates

I'd like the hover activation too :biggrin: (just deleted my bug report about this same issue) It's not just a usability enhancement, but also something users expect based on the behaviour of XYplorer within the active pane. I was puzzled by XYplorer not switching to the inactive tab in the inactive...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Did you do a "shift + del"? I tried it again and I got the result shown in "shift-delete.gif". 1) Make a new folder on a mapped network drive in XYplorer (fresh v27.90.0012 with default settings). 2) Enter the folder. 3) Shift-delete the folder in Windows Explorer. => The folder ...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Oh, I see. I hunted down this setting by copying parts of my XYplorer.ini into a fresh ini, and mistakenly associated "WatchDuringFileOp" with the adjacent "WatchIt" ("; Tweak: |-separated list of locations to watch ..."). In that case, fixing deleted folders not gettin...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

No more crashes indeed, thanks :biggrin: I am always amazed at how quickly you pump out new builds. Are you planning on doing more in the matter of shift-deleted folders? While XYplorer doesn't crash any more, the shift-deleted folder is still treated as if it existed. It does not get removed from t...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Okay, the breadcrumb bar was a false alarm. I got confused by it remembering deleted folders and thought that's why it could be connected to the crashing issue. E.g. creating "E:\New folder", navigating there, going back to E:\ will show "E: > New folder" in the breadcrumb bar, w...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Alright, here are results from testing a fresh copy of XYplorer. There was one sure way to reproduce a crash on Windows 10 and 11: 1) Make a new folder on a mapped network drive in XYplorer (fresh installation with default settings). 2) Enter the folder. 3) Shift-delete the folder in Windows Explore...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Ah. That's weird. But thanks for checking. I'll do some more testing with different betas and try x86 too.

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

See signature. I see ... and updated my profile (location and signature). That said, as long as an issue/bug gets recognised, it doesn't matter if it takes longer to fix it because you might have other priorities. XYplorer crashing isn't exactly great, but people owning a NAS probably rarely discon...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

No. Neither Win8.1 nor Win11. :\ Was this addressed at me? I forgot to mention that I am on Windows 10 (Pro). I just tested this with a VirtualBox Windows 11 Pro guest, mapping a shared folder as a network drive. When I rename that folder on the host (while the guest is running and not accessing th...

Re: x64 crashes when network drive not connected

Hm, I tried several times now, and XY x64 crashes consistently when I unplug the network cable and try to access that network drive. So, it's not crashing on start-up, it's crashing when trying to access the disconnected network drive.
