XYplorer Beta Club

You were correct, problem solved. Thanks.

Thanks, i'll check if it's blocked.

I don't know whether this is my system or XYplorer, but my help window will not display any information. I installed 18.50.0000 last night and now my XYplorer help window displays no data regardless of what item I select from the index. I'm running Windows build 15063, ver 1703.

avsfan, glad to read you got your problem resolved.

admin, I've asked the author when to expect a new release of Hard Shell Extensions, but did not receive an answer yet

Admin, I've communicated with the author of Hard Shell Extensions and my issue was also found by him a few days ago. 32 bit explorer can't display icon overlays because of an issue in his software. He will attempt to fix in the near future. I'll keep you posted.

Yes, I just can't figure out why it cannot display the icon overlays in the list view if it has access to the 64bit shell extension and it can display the overlay on the properties page. I'll keep you posted if Link Shell Extension people have any suggestions.

Admin, I changed XYplorer parameters to display the 64 bit context menu and the display of the files in a folder does not show the icon overly, but when I right click and display properties, the icon overlay is present on the properties page and the Link Properties page is also present and appears t...

Hey Admin, I'm finally getting back to this issue after a truly insane month. My wife had a minor heart attack on Christmas night and spent a few nights in the hospital. Last night one of our two cats had to be put down after a major circulation problem and congestive heart failure. One thing after ...

Admin, Link Shell Extensions x86 will not install on Windows 10 version 1607 64 bit so I can't try the 32 bit version. I don't know whether this is caused by Windows 10 or the Link Shell Extension (LSE) software. I get a message to install the proper version when I execute the install package. That ...

Yes, icon overlays is ticked.

XYplorer used to display the hardlink icon overlays correctly just like windows Explorer does and I'm positive it used to display the link properties page correctly. This is a fairly recent issue. I've noticed there was an issue with the icon overlays for some time, but i'm not exactly sure when sin...

I have been using hardlinks and symlinks interchangeably when they are not. Windows actually uses hardlinks in their System32 and SysWOW64 folders. I should have realized that because if I modify a file in one of those folders, it creates a new modified file and is no longer a link. I do a lot of wo...

I was not aware of that. I will have to look into using XYplorer to create hard links. Will XYplorer display symlinks correctly if they are created with XYplorer? I would think it will not make a difference concerning which program creates the hard links. The symlink icon overlays will probably stil...

Using the XYplorer 64 bit context menu breaks Hard Shell Extensions. Instead of the context menu providing an entry to "Select Link Source", it goes directly to "Drop Here". In Hard Shell Extensions, creating a hard link is a 2 step process of 1) selecting the source file or fold...

Sorry it took me so long to respond. I downloaded version 17.40.107 and the problem still exists. However, I checked my history on this issue and I had the same issue 3 and 1/2 years ago in June, 2013 with Windows 7. I resolved the issue by installing the 32 bit version of Link Shell Extension on my...
