Re: Add to right click menu?

Perhaps I should be more specific. I gave up Powerdesk for XYPlorer but there are options I really miss. When I right click a folder in Powerdesk I have the options: Powerdesk/New Folder and when I right click a file I have the options: Sendto/desktop (create shortcut) and Winzip (Extract to here) C...

Sometimes opens in Sys Tray, other times not

I have XY pinned to the Taskbar, when I single click it occasionally opens in the Sys Tray, so I wait for that, not wanting two iterations running and when it doesn't I have to go back to the Task Bar to see if has opened. Win7 Home Premium 32bit.

Right click in Win 7 Home Premium 32bit

When I right click a file, XYPlorer appears to choke on it and I just get the moving blue circle for ages. Is there a configuration option to help that?

No upgrade discount for existing users?

Nowhere can I find an upgrade discount for existing users, we have to pay the same as a new user, is this correct?

Re: Moved from Powerdesk and missing features that had.

Thank you for your reply. The encryption was probably trivial but it did stop anyone looking at my financial folder without knowing the password, I have no idea what type of encryption it was. I have found the XY equivalent of Size Manager, it is under View-Calculate folder sizes. Thank you again fo...

Moved from Powerdesk and missing features that had.

I was a Powerdesk user for 13 years but was not happy with its performance under Win 7 Home Premium so I decided to buy XY. The features I miss most, bear in mind I have only been using it for 1 day. 1. Powerdesk had a built in Size Manager. 2. Powerdesk could encrypt files. 3. When File Tips was ac...
