The FAQ for the topic "XYplorer feels slower than advertised. How can I make it faster?" shows how to add a file exclusions for "XYplorer.exe" and "XYcopy.exe" to Windows Defender for Windows 10, but the instructions don't seem to apply to Windows 11 because the options...

Re: Do you like the new application icon?
The main reason I don't like the new icon is that the letters XY occupy too small of the region of the icon. It would be much better if the XY were larger.
Re: appicon;
I tried to use the appicon; command, but it doesn't seem to change the icon that gets pinned to either the start menu or taskbar in Windows 11. I don't like the new icon. My main objection is that the letters XY occupy too small of a percentage of the overall icon and are harder to read than they sh...

All folder and file icons have gone blank
Today when I started using XYplorer, almost all folder and file icons had gone blank. They are all white. As far as I know, I didn't change anything. Exceptions are special folder like Dropbox, Downloads, and OneDrive that do display their normal icon.

Re: XYplorer freezes when copying MS Word files
I have MS Office 365.
I have been able to confirm that disabling the Preview Windows eliminates the problem. XYplorer doesn't become unresponsive and stuck in an infinite loop if I disable the previewer and then copy an MS Word file. To me it looks like the bug is related to the previewer.

Re: XYplorer freezes when copying MS Word files
I followed the instructions at https://www.xyplorer.com/faq-topic.php?id=ctxcrash "Hiding shell extensions" did not make the problem go away. The copy of the MS Word filed appears in the window as if it copied, but XYplorer becomes completely unresponsive. According to the Task Manager XYp...

Not all drive show in mini tree view
In mini tree view some, but not all drives, show. This is definitely a deficiency. All drives should show.

Re: Virtual drives not appearing in XYplorer 21.20
I *have* enabled View > Mini Tree > Mini Tree. Using View->Auto-Refresh doesn't seem to help. Also a manual refresh (F5) doesn't help. Changing the drive letter doesn't help. The mounted virtual drive does show up in XYplorer if I run a "fresh" instance, but not with my current settings. I...

Re: Virtual drives not appearing in XYplorer 21.20
Yes! Running a fresh instance does show the mounted virtual drive. Which settings would affect the suppression of seeing the drive?

Virtual drives not appearing in XYplorer 21.20
If I create a virtual drive using software like VeraCrypt and then mount the drive, the drive shows up just fine in several other file managers, but doesn't show up at all in XYplorer.
