My goal with this script is to have the user select a single file and run the script, which will create a directory with the same name as the <curbase> of the selected file and move all files with that name to the new directory. My script: "Create FOLDER from filename and move FILE to FOLDER&qu...

Is there a built-in variable or command to count the number of items that the user has selected?
ChatGPT insists that there is a <curitems> variable, but that just isnt true

Thanks again for the help on this! Have you figured out why some files show up as the WMP files and others show the proper Preview tab information? Is it based on how the file is encoded? Something else?? I have seen other posts that deal with what looks to be the same issue, and it seems to be a bi...

Well well well.....this is where it gets interesting! Dummy me wasnt testing with a diverse group of MP3s, just a couple from a given directory.....SO BAD troubleshooting, sorry.....that was my bad. On the ones that don't play when selected in the Explorer window, I see a thumbnail of the picture us...

To make this work, do I need to have a 'Custom File Association' created for MP3 files?

I am willing to bet that I have another option selected somewhere that is stopping this from working

Good Morning! I know that I had this working previous to my reinstalling Windows on my machine, but I cannot figure out what combination of settings will allow MP3 files to be played if they are selected in the Explorer window. I have the following options selected (among others, of course, but thes...

Thank you, Flux! And thank you so much for this XYS Lexer....I am really just learning to script in XYS, but I can tell that this is going to be very useful. I guess my first question should have been, what is the '%a'?, cause I really had no idea what it was for. I knew that your revised line was g...

I cannot seem to get the Toolbar Button to execute an XYS script to work. The path to my XYPlorer executable is: "C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer" So, the line that I added to the Toolbar editor is: "XYplorer..." Exec('"%a\C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe" /...

Thank you very much for the help on this! I didnt know about the Templates either! I am not at my computer right now, but I will be messing with this when I get home from work!

I do several common searches using the Find Files dialog which, of course. have different settings in the various tabs of that dialog (Name & Location, Size, Date, Attributes, Tags, Contents, Dupes, Excluded) My idea is to be able to assign a set of tab settings to several Preset Buttons that co...

Yep, it all seems to be working now, even if I start XYP in admin mode and AR in regular mode. I just needed to go about it systematically as directed by you guys (Highend and Horst......that could be a great name for a law firm!)

Thank you very much for your help!

OK, I restarted the computer and ran both XYP and AR non-elevated and I can now drag my files from XYP to AR as I used to. I actually cannot remember why I started running XYP in admin mode by default in the first place. I think it had to do with some operation that I couldnt run in non-elevated mod...

XY version? Which file renamer tool, url & version? Win 11 version ( ver in cmd prompt)? Thanks, HighEnd! I am on Win11 22H2. The file renamer tool that I use is Advanced Renamer (advancedrenamer.com) As for Horst's post, thank you as well! I DID have XYPlorer running in admin mode and AR runni...

Hello, Ever since I upgraded to Win11, I have had a problem with Drag&Drop, specifically, I would select a bunch of files or directories (in XYPlorer) and drag them to my file renamer program to be processed. This worked wonderfully before Win11. So, I was having the problem in Win11 and started...

I have not dug any deeper into this, but it seems that some of my mp3s preview when I select them and others do not. I am willing to bet that there is a pattern, but I don't know what it is yet.

Is this a known thing?
