XYplorer Beta Club

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...

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...

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...

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...

Tested on Windows 10 and 11.

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 ...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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

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...

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...

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.

Unfortunately, the Safety Belts don't make a difference. But I did some more troubleshooting and updated the OP.
