Start XYplorer when Windows Starts

Hi. Just a suggestion, if you do not mind. I have tried to get XYplorer to start when Windows starts and drop down to the Task Bar. However, when you do this, it may or may. What sometimes happens is that its loaded, but nothing is shown. When I look into the 'Device Manager', its there. So, I 'End ...

Re: Tabs - Jump when Locked and exit when item executed.

Hi.
I hope I can explain this better. Here goes.
If I am in a 'Tab' (5th one from left) and its listing shows film files, running a film from there (double left mouse click) sometimes does not run the film but exits the 'Tab' and opens the 1st 'Tab' in the 'Tab' row listing.
All the best.

Re: Tabs - Jump when Locked and exit when item executed.

I think I understood you now. But I cannot reproduce this problem here. I'm working with locked tabs all the time, and I never had this problem. Maybe somebody else reading this made a different experience? Wait, now I see one possibility: If your locked tab is at the same the Default tab (you can ...

Re: Tabs - Jump when Locked and exit when item executed.

I don't think I have seen this here. But maybe I misunderstood. There are no "locked folders" in XY. So, please explain again. Hi. I will do my best to explain, but my daughter is typing this as I had a few minor strokes and have problems with thought and speaking. She will do her best. T...

Re: Place shortcur in StartUp folder problem+more

OOps 'Spell Check' was for NotePad++ pages. Sorry about that. Go mixed up.
The first part for the 'Windows Startup' is for Xyplorer'. My trial time has just ended, so I have to save up for a while to get a proper version. Its worth checking through even in the newer versions.
All the best.

Re: Multiple Instances of XYplorer with own Tab configs

Hi. First, thank you for the welcome. Its nice to be here. Now, on reading your post, the first link you gave is right, but why setup each and every tab? Am I reading this correctly. Each 'Tab' has its own User setting selection for display and so on? If so, would it not be easier just to right clic...

Re: Multiple Instances of XYplorer with own Tab configs

Hi. I already set things up but no setting are kept. If you setup one folder to display icons, and the go to a folder that you want as 'detailed' listings, you will not have that. The previous setting of 'icons' hold 'true' for that folder. Change back to that the previous folder and now you have a ...

Multiple Instances of XYplorer with own Tab configs

Hi. I am a newbie and just had a dig into XYplorer. Very good indeed and fast, to say the least. Windows7 really killed the XP Explorer when it was re-vamped or what ever. I do not know anyone who like it. So this program is a 'must'. May I make a few constructive suggestions on the program. a) Tabs...
