Ok, I used your script to write my own: "Drive structure" folderreport("treeitems:{dir C:\ ({size mb}, {count} items)|{name}; {size kbr}; {modified yyyy-mm-dd_hh:nn:ss}}", "f", "C:\", "r", "E:\Storage\Documents\Drive structure NEW.csv"); fo...

The changelist stated:
"Reporting. The scripting command folderreport() now can generate a rich tree-shaped recursive report on any folder. (Pro Edition Only)"

So, I would like to see whether the tree style format works better for me than the flat style I've been using so far.

The original script logs all the directories and files on my harddisks and saves them to the "E:\Storage\Documents\Drive structure.csv" file.

I would like to still do that, but now using the new tree style added to the folderreport() routine.

For some time now I've been using this script to index all the files on my harddisks to make sure I can check what to do in the event of a harddisk crash: "Drive structure" folderreport("bcsv", "file", "C:\", "r", "E:\Storage\Documents\Drive str...

Sure, that would certainly work for me. Or, perhaps have a setting that the calculations can take no longer than n seconds? Or, perhaps DON'T restart the calculations when the underlying directories change within a certain amount of time (or during calculations). Sort of like, calculate once. Don't ...

I have it on permanently. Why else have the option in the settings? With SSDs its very fast. Also, the directory structure is cached so the next time I enter the directory it's very fast anyway. The reason the C:\ doesn't work properly is because Windows is constantly updating the system dirs. There...

Well, please allow both directions. I created this point explicitly for the purpose of NOT doing it for every directory because of the long wait! Shouldn't this automatically work out-of-the-box? I presume with FVS you explicitly store the settings the user has set. So, whether someone has 'Always s...

That would be wonderful.

Thanks for the quick response.

That makes me a sad panda.

I just discovered the 'Folder view settings' feature and am very happy to use it. But, how can I make it apply to the 'Show folder sizes' feature? My situation: I always have 'Show folder sizes' on (Tools/Configuration/General/Tree and List/List/Show folder sizes). Unfortunately, my C:\ directory (s...

Ooooooooooooooooooh, brilliant!!! I've been struggling with this one large folder that I want to always be reverse sorted by date. I saw the new 'custom sort order' feature and tried to get it to work. It didn't. So, before creating a new topic I thought I'd search first and found this. Thank you, t...

Blame Microsoft for having two types of administrator accounts.

No, it's the user name you supply by default when installing Windows 10. When you install windows you can do the following : 1. Use the predefined administrator account. This is the full administrator account that bypasses UAC (named 'Administrator). 2. Have a named administrator account. This is th...

I finally got it working. I found the solution on the UltraEdit forums (I went there to look for an older version to test, but found the solution instead). It has to do with UAC (which I have turned OFF) and with having a user (which I don't, I use the default administrator account). The solution is...

I have installed and uninstalled UltraEdit dozens of times by now. 'Run as administrator', default path, reset configuration... I think I've tried everything by now. All have the same result.

What I don't understand is why XYplorer doesn't show the UltraEdit menu in the 64-bit context menu.
