Re: Drag&Drop in Win11 not working

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!

Re: Drag&Drop in Win11 not working

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...

Drag&Drop in Win11 not working

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...

Some mp3s preview and others do not?

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?

XYPlorer external script editor?

Good morning!
Is there a good script editor out there with syntax features for XYPlorer script language?

Free would be best, of course, but I am open to anything, really.

Thanks for the help!

Re: Column to far right. What is it?

Thank you very much for your help, HIGHEND. Using that program, I found out that column is the left-most column of an Excel spreadsheet preview which appeared because I had a spreadsheet hightlighted. I just went into Preview | Previewed Formats in Configuration and turned off previews for Excel fil...

Column to far right. What is it?

When I try to do a double-click on a file, it seems to be slowing me down, and it acts as if I want to rename the file.
I think that I would like to turn this off, whatever it is.

Thanks in advance for the help

Re: Right click context menu crashes XYPlorer

Welp, that was it.
I even went through my context menu items with 'shellexview' and came up clean earlier.

I must not have done a very good job of it.

Thank you for the info. I will work at it again to find the baddie.

Hello, The context menu crashes in XYPlorer, but works fine in File Explorer. There are a couple of other threads on here that deal with context menu, so I tried the tips in those, including Configuration | Shell Integration | ...and the several options there. Is there anything else that I should tr...
