Viewing MP3 Device's files. No in XYplorer
My Creative Zen X-Fi MP3 player. Windows File Manager shows the device when connected and also allows me to see the included folders and sub folder/files. XYplorer shows the device as "portable media player" but fails to show any of the sub folders. States: "Location currently not ava...

Re: Preview Video Not Working
I went into windows settings, Choose default apps by Filetype, and changed default for MP4 to Windows Media Player. I guess this allowed the Preview to bring up a mini WMP window. Unfortunately, it does not work for .MKV files. Also it does not bring up, in preview, the volume control and file data ...

Re: Preview Video Not Working
ADMIN>>This so funny. I have used XYplorer for so many years and never knew or discovered there were two ways to do a preview. I have always used F12 to see my previews without even a simple clue that there was an CNTL-F11 to bring up another way to view. LOL. Now I have more learning, adjusting, an...

Re: Preview Video Not Working
UPDATE #2 Well, well........ My WMP is not working it seems. At least here on my desktop. It freezes everytime I try to play something. Question: Is Xyplorer preview for videos supposed to be tied/linked to Windows Media Player in some fashion? If I get my Windows Media Player working, then I have a...

Re: Preview Video Not Working
UPDATE I have been trying various configurations. I uninstalled, re-installed, loaded the K-lite files, etc. Then after rechecking I see that preview works correctly with .AVI files. It does not work with MP4 and MKV video files. When those latter two files are selected, the preview will display &q...

Re: Preview Video Not Working
>Horst...thanks but it's not any one, particular, video. It is all videos: downloaded movies, home videos, video from tablets...alll. I checked two other computers (they are laptops) that I have -- all windows 10. One older has Xyplorer v 18 installed. It plays videos just fine without a hitch. On v...

Preview Video Not Working
I have had this problem for a very long time and today decided to work on it. The video (mp4) plays but only audio comes out. The preview area shows a "screen area" but it is blank. The screen area size and dimension do change depending on the size of video selected (i.e. 720x480 or 360x24...

Access WdMyCloud
XYplorer is the only tool that seems to be able to make contact with the WDMYCLOUD NAS that I have. I do not understand and wish someone could explain to me. Here's the little bit that I do know. WIN 10 has decided that having the old-style network sharing system is not safe. So they disabled file s...

Re: Can you create a new junction in XYplorer?
If you mean restart windows, I've done that. If there is no way to "edit" junctions either in Windows or XYplorer then I'll have to try the following: 1. I've been doing all my re-installs from an admin account. I will soon create a standard user account for my daily usage. Hopefully, XYpl...

Can you create a new junction in XYplorer?
I have installed Windows 7 (64b) on a new SolidStateDrive C:\. I also have a datadrive, E:\. I relocated my document and download folder to E:\. Now I have no visibility under User of documents or downloads in XYPlorer. The My Documents junction still points to the old C:\Users\....\Documents folder...

Re: Image size in Preview - What is "Preview by Shell"
Actually this problem was on a Win XP machine. I have one other XP machine that I can try to put the ver 12.1 on to see if it replicates over there. On my Win 7 64-bit machine that I thought was so perfect....well...it isn't While I'm satisfied so far with the way images are handled in XYplorer,, mu...

Re: Image size in Preview - What is "Preview by Shell"
I've been doing some more research. It seems that the problem is operating system dependent. The error I got was on my Windows XP notebook system. Attached is a screen view of what I see on the Win XP system. I took the ver 12.1 and installed it on a Win 7 system (64bit) and it worked normally as ex...
