Re: Remove default Column Layouts
Thanks Highend,
I re read the help section on Folder View, i currently use it but i was hoping to modify the pre set layout to whatever folder i wanted on the fly like column layouts. any chance those can be edited or are they kind of hard coded in?

Remove default Column Layouts
Is it possible to rename or remove the default list of column layouts and replace with my own?
I tried changing the XYplorer.ini but I couldn't seem to get it to work. I also checked the help file.
Appreciate any help.

I saw an old post about this but couldn't see an answer exactly. I have been bumping around trying things for a while now. I would be so grateful if I could get it to work.

Tiny Menu Icons
