XYplorer Beta Club

On September 19th I resumed using both "Reduce memory" and "Process Lasso", I even increased the RAM cleaning of "Reduce memory" to every 30 seconds to make it "more aggressive". Now it is September 22nd ... result : not a single crash. I have not changed anyt...

OK, will do.

But it might take me a few days
to give You the answer.

Well, my success is holding on day 5. As I said above, I disabled my RAM cleaner 5 days ago. Then I noticed that I also had "Trim Memory" enabled on Process Lasso, I am not quite sure if I disabled this 5 or 4 days ago. In this time, I only had 1 crash 4 days ago, and I am not sure if at t...

It looks like I might have solved this ! In the last 3 days I have had only 1 crash (on 3 days) instead of the usual 6 or so (sometimes more). What did I change 3 days ago ? I stopped using the RAM cleaner. When Admin was scoffing at these cleaners higher up in this post - he (or she) was right ! I ...

Thanks for Your reply, Jupe. As for "changes are not saved with this crash", I was listing the full spectrum of the effects that have occurred over time ... that is not to say that they all occur all the time and with equal 100 % frequency. By far the most crashes (95 %) occur when creatin...

Thank You, Jupe ! After I closed the RAM cleaner and restarted Windows I was quite encouraged for a while but just right now, close to 24 hours later, I had a XY crash. I am familiar with XY's setting "Save changes to disk immediately" it is ON for years now, so I did not loose core settin...

Quite right, Marco, I did not mean to belittle Your idea, by " little " I meant "simple and easy to do" not "little" in terms of importance or intellectual quality :D . And " odd " was not referring to You but to Windows Defender mis-percieving new folder crea...

Well, I can't argue with that.

Sorry for using up Your time.

I will just keep an eye on XY developments,
and will keep checking out those odd little ideas
like the once suggested earlier by Marcus etc.

Thanks !!

Fair thought. But actually, I am quite a "minimalist", no shell extensions (other than some Windows default ones), minimal stuff running in background, most of my programs are portable rather than installed, etc, all with the desire to have a faster and more stable system. And so it is (ve...

Thanks, Admin ! You mentioned RAM, and something that sounds like a strain on RAM. I am using one of those "RAM cleaners" that clean ("trim") unused RAM every one minute. The program is ReduceMemory by Sordum.org version 1.6.0.0. Do You think this could cause either the error mes...

FeedBack for Admin : I "finally" got an error message ! I just moved two files to a folder, and when an auto-refresh was due XY did not crash - but I got this error message : Error: 14 (0x0000000E) Desc: Out of string space Dll: 0 Proc: DB@290, sPathDisplayOrig=C:\Portable\zzz Xtra\zz1\, s...

Right now I had a crash when
dragging a folder from left pane to right pane.

As if the "auto-refresh" function
caused the crash.

Update for Eil, Jupe, Marco, and Admin ... I followed Your suggestions as outlined above. Unfortunately it did not work. On day one, there were no crashes. On day two, there were three crashes. That is the difficulty with testing this, I have to wait for at least two days to be sure. I disabled that...

Thank You, Horst. Interesting thing, this "DefenderUI". I already have a similar freeware "ConfigureDefender". I will definitely check out this stuff later, but it gets me side-tracked, first I want to focus on XYplorer crashes, so I will keep it simple for now. If one is cynical...

Thank You, Marco, great algorithm. I will first see what happens after disabling AHK scripts and after adding those AV exceptions, and if XY crashes persist - You have already mapped out my next move. The way You guys think is quite logical and to be expected : Admin is strongly focused on XYplorer ...
