Copy XY Tags to file system Tags?

https://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8587&p=158617#p158617 mentions some script that can copy the XY file tags to the Windows File System tags. But I can't find the actual script link. I'm looking for a script that will copy the XY Tags to the files themselves (so they're viewa...

Re: Tag Backup 0.99

I'd LOVE to have this feature. I think XY would be great for processing photos. BUT I've learned my lesson with photos: I want the tags to follow the photo. I don't want them in some special program.(When I upload or share photos, I want the tags to follow them). Also, if the program every goes away...

Can I force XY to use the standard Windows TAGS?

I'm using XY Explorer for processing my photos, ranking them, etc. for later retrieval. It looks like the built in Windows Explorer Tags (which are stored in the file info) are different from the XY tags, right? I prefer to use the Windows TAGS b/c then if the file gets moved/uploaded, etc. the tag ...

Can I compare the files in two folders and IGNORE file extension?

I regularly need to compare two foldrers where I've converted file format (.mpg to mp4, etc.)

I just want to make sure that I've not missed any files.
So I want to see if for every XYZ.mpg there is an XYZ.mp4


Any way to do that?

How do I get XY explorer to display TortoiseHg icon overlays

I'm using XY 15.70.0100 and TortoiseHg version control on Windows 7 / 64 bit.

I can see the TortoiseHg icon overlays in Windows Explorer, but not in XY.

Any tips?

Re: Freezes scrolling through list of sound files w/ Preview

Oh, and a common issue is if I SELECT a bunch of sound files.

(I do try to remember to switch out of Preview mode, but often forget)

Freezes scrolling through list of sound files w/ Preview

This happens pretty frequently to me. I work with a lot of .wav sound files and the XY "preview" mode is super handy for that (will mention that in my review!) BUT.... if I then scroll up (maybe with pgup or just scroll bar) it sometimes freezes. I"m guessing it's trying to play every...

How can I search for a filename ENDING with a certain char?

I'm trying to find filenames ending with "_" . I'm also trying to find filenames with "_" occurring anywhere BUT the end. Using a pattern match (? *) works if that is the first char, but not if the last char. E.g.,: searching for a* gets results but *a does not (even though there...
