XYplorer Beta Club

I ran into this same issue this morning and found this thread. Problem is I can't access %windir%\Sysnative either, even after running today's beta XYPlorer as Administrator and manually creating the folder (it asked me if I wanted to merge the contents). Typing in the address bar allows me to autoc...

I use Stardock's WindowBlinds 6.1 ( http://www.stardock.com/products/windowblinds/ ), which makes the Windows UI skinnable, allowing users to radically change its look & feel (e.g. make it look like Mac OSX, Vista, something out of the movies, etc.). Some software apps I use don't always draw/re...

While it may be technically true that they are not "disabled", but since they contain NO valid information, what's the difference? So....You could maybe thus just as well block clicking on them if they're grayed out, so they would in fact be truely disabled. I purposely used "gray&qu...

Sorry - I wasn't suggesting hiding the info panel - just limiting its available tabs to those that provide value based on the selection. I don't think this would be confusing, except for the case I hadn't considered of using the up/down arrow keys in the List and having the Tab change (to Properties...

Don't ever add a fancy do-it-all FTP to make everyone happy, but a simple basic one that would keep most users happy, and if something like that could be handled mostly as optional module, then it might be even better. A generalized rule-of-thumb (that Don is obviously aware of) would be: Don't dup...

For example, the "Version", Preview" and "Raw View" tabs are superflous for File Folders, as they don't contain any information and therefore don't provide any value. This would both make an already clean interface even cleaner and remove the disappointment of clicking a tab...

I was happy to see I can mark junctions in XY - I use these regularly in a "C:\Links" folder hierarchy for software version maintenance; to get around "spaces in path" issues with some software; or sometimes just to save typing at the command line to deeply nested folders (makes ...

Using NirSoft's ShellExView utility, I see that the extension I mentioned in my previous post is provided by WinZip in its WZSHLSTB.DLL - it's an "InfoTip Handler" registered with .zip files, CLASID {E0D79307-84BE-11CE-9641-444553540000}. WinZip No InfoTip Handler WinZip Shell Extension DL...

I agree that XYPlorer doesn't need WinZip/7-Zip archive manager-level functionality, but I was disappointed to see "Not a previewed format" in the Preview pane. Just a listing of the contained filenames would be quite helpful - I'm often too impatient to bring up the WinZip/7-zip UI to ext...
