Re: XY native for Arm64?

Thanks, looking forward to it. So possibly in about a year. I am very happy that the 64 bit (x64) version is now ready btw.

XY native for Arm64?

I bought a Windows Arm laptop (X13s) and use XY emulated now. Is there a chance with the new TB version to compile natively for Arm?

Re: XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

Great, looking forward to it. The new 64 bit version is a great basis for the future! :-) I am so glad this time the refactoring and code base to a new platform worked!

Re: XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

Sorting is one reason why it is necessary to get all data at once. However, I agree that the current behavior could be made optional. I have added it to my list. I just had a folder open with about 28000 files (MP3 and flac). One active column is to show the Album information. With the latest versi...

Re: +++ BREAKING NEWS: XYplorer goes twinBASIC +++

The 64-bit version is fully compatible with all data and configuration files for reading and writing. All you have to do is overwrite the two executables that are part of the 64-bit package: XYplorer.exe and XYcopy.exe. Your current 32-bit configuration will be preserved 100%. But it can be even ea...

Re: XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

"Skip Custom Columns" temporarily, just right click the column header, Great, that helps. Thanks a lot! I did not understand this. Maybe the word 'exclude' custom column would be a little clearer. I need to test if that applies to the current or all custom columns (traveling now, so can n...

Re: XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

Yes, I am aware of sorting being a reason to need to read all files. I do not know if it possible to speed up the read-in process. But possibly a message displaying that generating the full list will take a specific time and the question to toggle reading in all files for the current view would be g...

Re: XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

Is there a fix for that? Or am I the only one occasionally having folders with thousands of files? Or no one else is having similar problems?

Re: How to --- love / hate relationship with XY

Thanks a lot, I had overlooked the PDF manual there. A lot of stuff in life isn't placed in one's lap. The PDF manual is readily available on the website if you put in the effort to look for it. The whole point of my post is that it should be easier IMO to find the relevant information. Of course on...

Re: How to --- love / hate relationship with XY

I just have seen there is a new video about XY on YT -- maybe that is a bit what I was hoping for. A PDF manual is not installed with my XY and the downloads do also not show a PDF manual. Exactly what I was talking about. A lot of the XY stuff is hidden well. ;-)

How to --- love / hate relationship with XY

XY is a great program. But on the other side I find it very unintuitive to use. Many hidden settings and features. It would be great if the UI could be adjusted to make it simpler to use. I understand with the thousand options is has this is difficult. Another option would be to create how-to videos...

XY unusable slow with many files in a folder -- when extra info (MP3 tags, size...) is shown

I am on the latest XY version. But this has been a problem for me forever. When I have a folder with many files (thousands) it takes ages to load / display the files. This is in all cases when a column displays the size of a file (let alone a folder) or when a column displays for example the album t...

Re: Use external CopyHandler (ExtremeCopy) as default for copy/move operations?

Well, my experience is different. Contrary to what I said before, setting the CustomCopyNoDoEvents tweak makes my copying even faster. No Donald, that is a misunderstanding. The tweaks setting did not solve _my_ speed problems, because they were related to the hub [1]. After further testing I see t...

Re: Use external CopyHandler (ExtremeCopy) as default for copy/move operations?

I did try that tweak. Does not make a difference. I do not seem to have other hobbies and spent again way too many hours testing (just kidding, it is very frustrating to need to spent a large amount of the weekend to play beta tester). I finally was able to get closer to the cause. The problem is a ...

Re: Use external CopyHandler (ExtremeCopy) as default for copy/move operations?

That's not the output of CTRL +click on that menu item :om: Thanks, that was not clear to me what to do exactly. That is some sort of puzzle or patients game!? Why would you ever hide potential very important information in such a way!? I think I found the hidden 'what can make XY slow' list now. S...
