Re: multiple instance XYplorer taskbar icons are not grouped

limiting the length of history of visited folders

1. how can i limit the history of previously visited folders in XYplorer?

2. only remember history of current session (seems to be remembered between sessions)

3. is there a way to prevent duplicates in that history?

Re: multiple instance XYplorer taskbar icons are not grouped

This might be associated with the fact that XYplorer titlebar lists in reverse order (open folder followed by application name followed by ini filename followed by version) and therefore appears as different application.
